Favoriting The Long Way Home with Kris Holmes: Playlist from August 13, 2024 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.

Whoa! I'm reading a Nick Drake biography right now. As soon as this song started I read the words "Donovan's 'Season of the Witch'" in the book.

I recall discussing with Flavor Dave how in the Rex Garvin version where they call out different Bond titles, we brainstormed which current Bond titles could fit the cadence. I think Goldeneye might have.

Hey Jason. Went on Tubi after not having been on in a long ass time and saw they had quite a few Film Noirs on there.

Hi Matt! Thanks for the heads up. I haven't been on Tubi - but there was just a story in the Times about that streaming service.

Seen that on the big screen twice and think I have it on DVD. Phil Karlson has a number of quality film noirs and then Ben & Wlaking Tall in the 70s. He definitely was a workman like director but probably underrated a bit.

↳ Song: "Cry Me A River" by "Lorraine Ellison"
As shocking as this may sound, I don't think I've heard "Cry Me a River" before.
Until now, I only thought of it as a sarcastic reproof synonymous with “Oh, boo hoo”.

My familiarity with Julie London pretty much begins and ends with the movie "The Girl Can't Help It"!
