Record Day | Vinyl Destination
DJ Jazzy Jeff and crew set out for another European journey. Before the adventures begins, DJ Jazzy Jeff must keep a 3 pointer tradition going, extending their departure time. Upon arriving in Manchester, the waiting game gets tense while the guys are stuck at the train station without a ride to the hotel. Steve gives some insight to keeping the group one happy family.
Before a stop in Charleroi, Belgium the crew celebrates Record Store Day in Manchester where DJ Jazzy Jeff takes to the streets for some digging. A few finds and a quick trip to Belgium bring them right back to the UK for a show the legendary DJ Premier and Royce Da 5’ 9”, aka Prhyme. After 15 years away from playing vinyl records, the show ends with a 45 set from DJ Jazzy Jeff.
