Phast Phreddie lathers up the Boogaloo Shampoo!
Thurs, Mar 19: Boogaloo Shampoo featuring New York Night Train DJ Mr. Jonathn Toubin and guest DJ Phast Phreddie the Boogaloo Omnibus, Beauty Bar (231 E 14th St), 11PM: FREE: Beauty Bar New York and Three Olives Vodka present the new Boogaloo Shampoo – the party where New York’s hardest-working DJ (over 300 gigs in 2008), New York Night Train Soul Proprietor Mr. Jonathan Toubin, fills the mod-ish newly-redecorated back room dancefloor to ceiling with bubbly 45rpm soul classics, novelties, and obscurities – spanning late-r&b to early funk but centering on mid-60s burners every Thursday. Boogaloo Shampoo is thrilled to announce Mr. Toubin’s guest DJ Mar 19 is Phast Phreddie the Boogaloo Omnibus. Phast Phreddie isn’t only one of the fathers of contemporary American rock/punk criticism and zine culture since his days as the founder of the seminal Back Door Man from 1975 to 1978, and the leader of the swingin’ post-punk/soul/jazz/garage/what-is-it? Los Angeles institution Phast Phreddie and the Precisions (who featured a rotating cast of notable Los Angeles musicians including a pre-Gun Club Jeffrey Lee Pierce!) but he’s one currently one of New York’s finest and best respected soul DJs, the sound behind such legendary parties as Wang Dang Doodle and the Subway Soul Club. Climb onboard and do the Phreddie!
