Night Train w/DJ Eli, Apex, Kinetic & VAZ 89.9 WKCR December 9, 1997

DJ Eclipse:

Here’s the first episode of Night Train which was a show started by Apex & DJ Eli (aka DJ Raccoon) along with Kinetic and Nasty VAZ. The show was on Tuesday nights from 1am-5am on 89.9 WKCR. The show ran for about a year and a half. Guests on this show were Apani B Fly MC and L.I.F.E. Long (42:00) as well as Mr. Lif (99:44) who rhymed alongside Kinetic. Loosely based around the principles of Stretch and Bobbito’s show, these guys cracked jokes, played dope music, had guests freestyle, but also incorporated sets dedicated to classics/originals. Mic breaks at 37:22, 97:28 and 157:53. Side note, when I started The Halftime Show with Riz/Lynn, part of the reason I came up with the name was because this show was on Tuesdays and SNB were on Thursdays. We came on Wednesday’s right in the middle.
