35mm Digitized

Put The Needle On The Record

by Reviewer Rob

Here’s a gallery of some black and white photos from 1995, I believe. At least that’s what the sheet of negatives was marked as, some date in 1995, and “Kelly Lynch tape release party at Sharkey’s”.

Kelly Lynch was a San Diego nightclub DJ in the late-1980’s through the mid 1990’s who I first met when he was spinning at a Thursday night club Trevor Watson from Revolt In Style Magazine was promoting at Sybil’s Down Under called Berlin. It was a consistent gig for Kelly and he was a reliably good dance floor filler. House music was big and the crowds were too. This batch of images are black and white neg reproductions from a roll of 36, probably Kodak T-Max 400.

The sheet of transparencies was marked as being shot at “Sharkey’s 1995” and I think it’s the only time I was there. Looks like it’s the only roll of film too.
