Riverside Jam 25th Anniversary Moments

Heads from near and far, past and present, young and old, married and single, all got their full groove on “Outlaw Party” style to the classic house beats of DJ’s Hex Hector & Julio “Ton” Rodriguez. Here’s a candid photo essay from the evening. It’s amazing how good music can put smiles on so many faces! Enjoy!!

    Thank you so much for you wonderful article and pictures. I left the music scene for a nearly twenty years and this has been my official return to the music scene. My goal is to play music that has integrity meaning and value to an audience that share the same values. I once again found that audience at sep, 18 2010 RIVERSIDE JAM. I have enjoyed sharing the decks with my old partner Hex Hector and seeing the respond of everyone that attended. Riverside jam was not about me nor Hex Hector, but about the people that cultivated the history, my Washington heights people, please stand up. You represented riverside to the fullest, you are the cause of this wonderful history. Special thanks to Alex velasinni aka CARROT NOSE who was the first dj to do a riverside jam back in the road runners days. special thanks also to Elbin Reyes and Steve Martinez senior of the MARTINEZ BROTHERS for there love and support of my return. I’m working on a riverside jam boat ride up the Hudson next!
