Kris Holmes's avatar View Kris Holmes's profile Favoriting

Twenty years of dusty fingers, frayed cuticles, & upper respiratory infections — from record digging and DJing around the globe — coalesces into a 2-hour journey through Rhythm & Blues, Soul, Funk, Jazz, Blues, Latin, Rock & Roll, and all points in between. Your speakers will be head-nodding, toe-tapping & even two-stepping to this vintage 45rpm party in no time. Hear favorite songs you didn't know were your favorites, aural treats & record-world problems from the vinyl side of life.

"internet" jukebox owners have very specific deals with publishers. at least 1/3 and maybe more than 1/2 of what i'd like to play at the pub is not available. (despite the fact that it's "on line")

"i might sleep with it tonight..."

I see a romance cover: Kris nearly shirtless, with burning eyes, powerful and gentle simultaneously, as he cradles the loaner. "One Night In Marathon. A passing stranger introduced them. It was quickly a passion that made the desert bloom...music that made the mesquite shiver. But they could be together just....one night."
