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.

Too bad Ginger wasn't in Ella's band.

Too bad Ella didn't cover Pressed Rat And Warthog. Ginger Baker didn't much care for Sunshine Of Your Love, since he didn't collect any royalties.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:52pm
Uncle Michael:

night, Kris

Franco Twinkie:

Funny that The Fillmore Auditorium and Winterland where Cream played were walking distance from The Fairmont Hotel where Ella cut that track.
Avatar 11:04pm
Kris Holmes:

whoa, that is crazy

Cream's version Crossroads, the song that introduced all us rockin' know nothings to Robert Johnson was recorded at The Fillmore I do believe.
