Favoriting The Long Way Home with Kris Holmes: Playlist from May 30, 2017 Favoriting

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.

Got introduced to chiggers on one trip to Big Bend, in crazy heat. Had a nice canoe trip through Boquillas Canyon on another trip.

Killer Tyrone Davis side. Early '70s Chicago Dakar/Brunswick/etc. productions are just so darn crisp and punchy
Avatar 10:37pm
still b/p:

Did a canoe trip on the Buffalo River in Arkansas and the only local animal life that was any trouble was an intestinal parasite that came home with my paddling partner, who'd unwisely added river water to his Kentucky Beau whiskey, which we'd purchased from the random guy who did our vehicle shuttle for us and also acted as bootlegger to supply us..."You in the middle of five dry counties, boys." That was some expensive Kentucky Beau and beer.

quoth Wikipedia about Benjy Melendez:

"Perhaps surprisingly, Melendez's family, including Melendez himself, were Marranos (Sephardic crypto-Jews), practicing their religion in secret even in the 1970s while being part of a Hispanic community."

wow i didn't know that!
Avatar 🥁 ♥ 10:49pm
Kris Holmes:

ugh, intestinal parasite = no bueno, my sister got one in India
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:51pm
Uncle Michael:

Kris, not far from you, over in New Mexico, there is a deep history of hidden Jews. It's really fascinating stuff.

I learned of this on our trip to Santa Fe. I find it fascinating. There's a great Atlantic article online.

iminim?
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:05pm
Little Danny:

I've never heard you say anything with a drastically different pronunciation. Maybe "garage."
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:05pm
Little Danny:

But please do the next mic set with your impression of an American accent!

Gare-age, with the accent on the first syllable.

The higiminy?
I can still get taken by surprise with pronunciations from other English speakers. Heard a sound bite from a UK someone who pronounced "respiratory" as "resPEERatory." Among the inexplicables is that while Yanks don't say that, we do say "conSPEERatory."
Avatar 🥁 ♥ 11:15pm
Kris Holmes:

english is weird
Avatar 🥁 ♥ 11:16pm
Kris Holmes:

did i tell you guys about when i say "decade" americans hear it as "dickhead"?

There are so many words I want to hear in your next mic break, Kris. Don't deny us!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:23pm
Little Danny:

I'm pushing off for the evening, Kris. Thanks for the great tunes and impeccable tastes
Avatar 🥁 ♥ 11:24pm

Americans hear "decade" as "dickhead," but it's English that's weird?! Uhm...
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:26pm

Yeah, I need some sleep too. I'll say goodnight and listen to you finish the show, away from the keys.
