François K - Larry Levan Birthday Stream 2025

This stream aired on July 20, 2025 to celebrate Larry Levan's 71st birthday. Joining me on the program were David Depino and Joey Llanos, long-time friends of Larry, as well as original staff members at The Paradise Garage. They are currently organizing the very successful yearly Garage Reunion parties in New York City, keeping the flame alive for long-time members as well as for new converts. We traded personal stories and anecdotes while reminiscing how unique and special of a friend Larrry really was. The stream features some music that was close to his heart, culled from across the decades of his life.
