Favoriting The Long Way Home with Kris Holmes: Playlist from August 9, 2022 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.

Those two stream tracks would have totally fit in a Long Way episode. Confluence.

Getting stink eye from my partner. Going to either put in headphones or turn it down. Headphones!

Kris Holmes:

Hi everyone, thanks for being here
Avatar 10:07pm
Kris Holmes:

I have to do the show in headphones because no one here wants to hear it either, so don't feel too bad WR
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:09pm
WR:

For this episode it's going to be a problem, the headphone cable isn't long enough for me to dance. May switch to listening on phone with headset.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:09pm
WR:

GREAT Isleys recording!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:10pm

Will we be hearing any of his solo stuff from the 70s?
Avatar 10:22pm
Kris Holmes:

Not tonight. I didn't get a chance to go digging through stuff for it.

We’ve had rain almost every day lately which I’m fine with as it’s generally prevented it from getting too hot in the late afternoon/early evening when the sun is on my side of the building

I'm glad I can be a provider of assistance to Tuesday night humor

Remember cruising in the parent's station wagon blasting this Outsiders song in Houston in the 60s..

WLSClark:

Candy, how bout that! I just got home from nice dinner out for a change! Hated missing all my shows tho.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:54pm
WR:

Ha. The start of my "collection" was J.C. Penny's 10 cent 45s. I don't think any of them survived, all got totally worn out or broken (4 younger brothers...). Most memorable was Please Mr. Custer and Leotards (short shorts don't make it anymore).

Hi Candy.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:55pm
Candy-O'67:

I feel the same way, Clark! Missed the earlier Tues night shows, too
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:56pm
Matt from New Orleans:

Hey Candy

Roy was such a fantastic live performer. It’s a shame he never hit it big.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:57pm
Candy-O'67:

Yaaaaas, Clark! I saw him at Ponderosa Stomp!
Avatar 10:59pm
WLSClark:

Candy, how cool.
WR, I was like a kid in a candy store at JC Penney 10 cent sale. The next week they were a nickle and then gone. Got tons and never had issues and have them all because I had 3 brothers too and we all kept good care of our 45s.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:02pm
WR:

Nice WLSClark. I'm going to see the siblings on Labor Day weekend, first time to all be together since my mom's funeral in 2013. I'll try not to hold it against them (the maltreated 45s).
Avatar 11:03pm
WLSClark:

WR, hey weren't perfect. EACH of us remember at least ONE 45 one of their brothers broke.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:05pm
Matt from New Orleans:

Have seen The Dixie Cups do this one. They still sound great albeit with a Neville sister having replaced the non-sister of the group.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:06pm
Candy-O'67:

That's awesome, Matt
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:07pm
Candy-O'67:

Still no rain over here, Kris

Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:07pm
Matt from New Orleans:

Starting high school is a big milestone
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:08pm
Candy-O'67:

Kris, before I went to build the house in Dominican, we did an escape room here in Austin to practice team building! Ha!
Avatar 11:09pm

I saw Sky hanging out at Scoot Inn during SXSW shortly before he died. I bet we saw him around the same time
Avatar 11:24pm
Kris Holmes:

Probably was around then, ARC & SXSW coincided sometimes back then iirc
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:27pm
Candy-O'67:

I was still living in CA then and was back here on a working trip and planned it around SXSW. I had permanent makeup clients back here, too, that I'd come over here twice a yr to take care of when I lived out there and I usually planned my spring trip around SXSW
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:27pm
