The Sanctuary - Francis Grasso - 1971 Live
Recording - Part 1
This is a small sample from the full
recording.
The Full Recording Contains 21 Tracks
Recorded & Remastered By Luis Mario "Flaco"
D.J.
This recording was made approximately between
3 am & 7 am.
Keep in mind this was a small battery
operated recorder.
New York 1970. "The Sanctuary" 43rd Street &
8th Ave.
I would like to pay tribute to my friend and
mentor Francis Grasso the innovator and
creator of the slip-cueing Mix. I would like
to thank Francis for allowing me to record
him while he was playing, a little recorder
was placed near the DJ area "The Altar"
remember this was a church. You can hear the
participation from the audience and how they
reacted to the music this man was playing and
mixing by clapping their hands, cheering and
chanting with whistles and screams.
Outside the club there was a sea of people
trying to get in, by midnight Francis would
arrive while Michael Capello was warming up
the crowd and to this day he is up there with
the pioneers of DJ's. I had the honor to
work with Francis 2 times once at "The
Directoire" along with Al Garcia & Leo Sayan
and the other time at the after hours club
"Cobra's" where he would come in the middle
of the night and ask me to let him play, how
could I say no to a legend. I will keep
Francis' memories alive and continue to play
the music that made all the DJ's pay
attention and to be creative, to learn how to
read a crowd and how to manipulate and teach
the audience that the DJ is in control not
the other way around. Sadly, the man passed
away just prior to his 53rd birthday, on
March 20, 2001. I'd like to know if any of
you remember these clubs and if you have any
memories of it please post it. If anyone
would like a copy of the entire recording
maybe we can work something out.

[Notes:ANCHOR VOICE] AP Money MinuteFord,
General Motors and Toyota all posted
lackluster sales for June as a sluggish
economy and poor sales of trucks and SUV's
crimped consumers spending power.GM retained
its traditional U.S. sales lead, even though
its sales dropped 18 percent for the month.
Ford.'s sales drop 27.9 percent for the month
and Toyota's fell 21.4
percent.----------------------A New York
appeals court has ordered the remaining state
claims of excessive pay dismissed against
former New York Stock Exchange Chairman
Richard Grasso's $187.5 million compensation
package.The court said the attorney general's
authority to pursue the claims lapsed when
the NYSE changed from nonprofit to a
for-profit corporation in 2005. Last week,
the state's Court of Appeals dismissed four
common law claims against the package.
Tuesdays ruling said that seeking to recover
money for two remaining claims would simply
benefit the NYSE's private owners.
----------------------------------A judge has
ruled against Wal-Mart in a class-action
lawsuit, saying the retailer violated state
labor laws 2 million times by cutting worker
break time and forcing employees to work off
the clock. Wal-Mart was ordered to pay $6.5
million in compensatory damages, but could
end up paying much more after a jury
considers civil penalties and punitive
damages in October.I'm James Limbach with AP

Gary Grasso of the Law Offices of Grasso,
Bass & Williams is featured in an exciting,
exclusive, in-depth and inside interview,
discussing
Lawyers You Love to Hate. Gary addresses the
incredible difficulties lawyers find
themselves in when they commit legal
malpractice. He points out that malpractice
occurs when a lawyer fails to render
competent professional service to a client
and the client is damages as a result of the
failure. The three major theories of
liability are negligence, breach of fiduciary
duty, and breach of contract. To prove
malpractice, you must prove that your lawyer
owed you a duty to represent you competently,
that he or she made a mistake or otherwise
breached the duty owed to you, and that your
lawyer's mistake harmed you, causing you
damages. Additionally, you must file your
lawsuit within the statutory time period or
"statute of limitations" established by state
law for legal malpractice claims.
Gary has focused his practice for over
twenty-eight years in professional liability
& ethics litigation expanding more recently
into gaming law. He has represented Chicago
area lawyers and their firms before the
federal and Illinois courts, and the Illinois
Attorney Registration & Disciplinary
Commission. He has represented a gaming
company for various licensing and regulatory
matters before state gaming commissions and
the National Indian Gaming Commission (NIGC).

As a litigator for over 28 years, Gary has
handled a wide range of civil cases
concerning physicians, attorneys, and serious
permanent injuries. He has tried jury cases
in the state and federal courts of Illinois
and participated in numerous mediations. Gary
has defended doctors and Chicago area
hospitals, including Cook County Hospital
(now Stroger Hospital), Northwestern and
Childrens Memorial Hospitals.
The attorneys of Grasso, Bass & Williams
started their law firm in 2006 to provide
legal services drawing from their wide
backgrounds. Several attorneys are
experienced in lobbying at the state and
local level, as well as providing consulting
in public service, employment relations, and
legal ethics.
