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.

That Mer-Lyn 45 isn’t cheap in Disocgs

Matt from New Orleans:

I’m not sure that a duo record counts as a separate artist here but I’m not really complaining about bearing this tune 😂
Avatar 10:14pm
Kris Holmes:

Luckily it was priced at $2.50 at an antique mall in amongst a bunch of Elvis & Ricky Nelson 45s
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:15pm
Matt from New Orleans:

Guessing it will be going on eBay not to your own stand at an antique mall
