Great selection! All are incredible routines! Every room dj in the world had two copies of Rock The Bells. IMHO Cash changed the game using the transform as a musical instrument (yes, and Jazzy Jeff) and QBert took it to another dimension. Thanks for your videos Michael.

I know your comment is a year old but Aladdin's used the philly Transformer style. He merely imitated DJ Jazzy Jeff and cash Money's 1983-1984 routine. Someone posted those old philly tapes when Cash and Jeff performed as the Twins of Spin. There's no way Aladdin is number one when he copied a philly technique pioneered and recorded nearly 10 years before Aladdin 'used' it.

New school will say he's sloppy but probably never DJ'ed analog. Every DJ was talking about this kid back then. Wonder what ever happened to him?

Every time I see a video of Q cutting up this record he does something slightly different with it. It's funny how he and Mixmaster Mike both came out with single-record routines, back in '95, with Mike doing his 'Natural Born Killers' routine. Are there any other single-record routines anyone can think of? I used to have one of my own, but I won't say what record I used, in case I ever make a comeback and I want to perform it again!

Been listening to Cash and Jeff since mid 80s and their live sets were unbelievable, I still haven't heard anything as good to this day that is so musical yet so technical. I slightly prefer Cash out of the two but Jeff has the best transformer ever on Magnificent JJ and perfect routine on Rhythm Trax House Party and Live at Union Square is jaw dropping for its speed and fluidity. Cash Scratching to the Funk and cuts on Where's the party at album is the best ever heard., also loved his live sets with Marvellous, play this only at night routine is one of the best routines ever and is a work of art.
