WHAT THE D.J. NEWS INSERT HAD TO SAY ABOUT THE MEGAMIX ON THIS RELEASE:
The Medley Masters, Mike Arato, John Matarazzo, and Raul A. Rodriguez, have done it again! 19 super hits of 1985 will get your crowd just too turned on and trap them at the point of no return. Starting off at 105 BPM, your audience will be dancing in the key of life. They'll get into the groove, do the conga, spin around, eat you up, and give you new attitude! Whew, I wonder how they'll top that in '86?! The tunes are listed below in order of play. Thanks for sending in your votes.
