Favoriting The Long Way Home with Kris Holmes: Playlist from March 17, 2020 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.

Shorty!!! When I was (guest) playing records out more than 'once in a while - maybe a few times a year if that' this was a 45 that I liked to spin. And one bartender requested it whenever I would guest.

Re: New Order -- 'Ceremony' was one of the last 45s I spun out with Flavor Dave (Miss ya, buddy...) when we spun a bunch of 80s 45s, which we did a few times.

Thanks for the tunes, Misa!

Awww, RIP Dave
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:27pm

(I think of him all the time. I find 45s every month that I wish I could share with him, even though he likely had everything I find, and multiple copies, at that. Ha ha.)
