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.

I enjoyed a few of his livestreams from his apartment during the depths of the pandemic

Good evening Kris

Kris Holmes:

I did not catch any of those but that sounds very cool
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:05pm
Matt from New Orleans:

It was just him chatting and playing tunes on his piano. They were very casual, fun and interesting.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:05pm
Matt from New Orleans:

He was doing them monthly for over a year

Kris Holmes:

very cool

Matt from New Orleans:

It’s funny how Chess released his work. The Trio stuff was on Argo but his solo stuff on Cadet.
Avatar 10:12pm
Kris Holmes:

I think that's just a timing thing, Argo changed it's name to Cadet & the Trio expanded.

Used to have a Japanese laser disc of Ramsey Lewis live. The video store I worked at when I was 14 which was owned by my friend’s parents must have imported or bought some imported deadstock from Japan and that one never rented so they gave it to me. I watched it many times and became a fan. It was completely illegal for me to be working there BTW but it was usually during the day Saturday. I was a movie addict and I could rent all I wanted. I would stock the shelves and inspect and clean the discs when they came back. I’m sure whatever chemicals I was using probably didn’t benefit me. 😂

Matt from New Orleans:

There was some overlap of releases on both

Hey Matt, Doug!

doctorjazz:

All those 7 inch Ramsey Lewis records, wow!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:17pm
JtotheK:

We've likely discussed before, but for me - there was a period of time where I'd just pick up any Ramsey Lewis LP that I hadn't heard, because they were always in sub-5 dollar bins, and always good.
And then suddenly I had a whole bunch of Ramsey Lewis LPs. (Same concept with Ahmad Jamal LPs.)
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:18pm
JtotheK:

Jade East is a good one. And also I believe is a Northern 45.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:21pm
JtotheK:

And responding to myself at 11:17 -- case in point, at a local buddy recent record sale where all records were $1 - I picked up Ramsey 'Sun Goddess' for a buddy and an Ahmad Jamal live from 1982 LP for me that I hadn't seen before.

Doug Schulkind:

@JtotheK
And Ray Bryant.

Kris Holmes:

All those records indeed everywhere except for Ray Bryant's Up Above The Rock LP
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:23pm
JtotheK:

^ Yep, agreed Doug! And 6-eye columbia Duke Ellington records.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:25pm
JtotheK:

Up Above the Rock is a really good record. Took a while to finally find the 45 of the title track!

Hinted at McCarthur Park there for a minute...
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:27pm
JtotheK:

haha doc -- was thinking the same!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:29pm
JtotheK:

someone played Mac. Park recently on a radio show and my daughter heard it while I was listening, and picked up on the lyric about cake in the rain and it prompted a raised eyebrow and series of questions. that i did my best to answer.

JtotheK, I could use those answers myself...
