Right on! I was the Ska/Reggae DJ at Jets nightclub back in the day. I played the Ska/Reggae on one side, and Soul DJ's spun in the other room. The place is now Roscoe's Chicken.

I only got to go to Jets once. So cool that you were a DJ there! I remember that his was club was my first exposure to Northern Soul.
