Nic Alvarado Live In San Francisco

This mix is 100% vinyl. 

This mix was born back in early 2000 something. Starts off very deep and soulful with some heavy chords. In the middle of the mix it really starts to get banging and goes into some swing house.  The mix ends on the gospel house tip with one of my favorite Frankie Knuckles tracks.
