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.

One day I was walking around the Rose bowl and I ran into an old neighbor,I asked him what he was doing and he said playing drums with Dick Dale. I said WHAA!?! How'd that happen? He said he walked up to him after a gig and said " Your drummer is crummy, I'm better." Dick said " Okay, you be my drummer" And he did! For quite awhile. I saw on them at the Santa Monica pier.

I grew up two blocks from a Southern Pacific freight line. It's a wonder I didn't get chopped into pieces.
