Mix of the day: Tom Moulton
Here's a rare set from disco pioneer Tom Moulton, recorded (with surprisingly high sound quality) at New York City's Sandpiper Club in 1974.

Tue, 01 Jan 2013Those 6MS mixes aren't from the Sandpiper at all-they were made by the 6MS guys, not Moulton himself, and well after the fact. Thanks for putting me onto that site, though!

Tue, 01 Jan 2013thanks for bringing this to everyone's attention.

it isn't surprising that the quality is so good nor was it recorded AT the club.

Tom Moulton created these mixes in a studio to be played at the club. He was making the blueprint of the modern DJ mix. So the quality is good as it a studio recording not a live club recording


for those that are interested here are some other Sandpiper tapes with Tom speaking over them - get your inner DJ geek on and listen:
