What's The Connection? DJ

In honor of National Disc Jockey Day today, here is a connection of songs with DJ in the title. A couple of pretty well known tracks and a couple much less known, but all are pretty good. Play this today to celebrate your favorite DJ's, whether they can scratch, mix in key or not. More than a third of these have "Hey" in the title, too. As a DJ, I can tell you that "Hey, Mr. DJ" is not uncommon, not that any of us mind, I'm sure. I wonder how long it will be before a robot takes over for all DJ's? I'm sure eventually AI will figure out the best way to watch a crowd and get them dancing on cue and eventually when to MC. But for now, it's really not that efficient. One day, maybe...

Specialty Dances 1

I never gave these out to anyone and especially not willy nilly like some of my old mixtapes. Way back when (this is an old CD I made) DJ's were able to get unauthorized compilations first on record and then when CD's first came out also on CD of compilations of things like the biggest or newest hits. This one guy put out a series of them and all they said on the outside was All The Original Hits - Digital DJ Tools and then a number. They were great. Instead of bringing 15 to 20 albums just for that many songs that you knew you would probably play at a wedding or a gig, you could bring one pick (eventually 20 or so CD's). I made my own of Specialty Dances that weren't already on another CD of songs that you wouldn't always play, but someone, somewhere would request it and here it would be. This is before TikTok was a thing. Anyway this is my first volume of it. Your copy of a DJ cheat CD. Nowadays, DJ's probably look it up online and stream it, but then, they'd be like "OMG, you have that song?!"
