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.

Matt from New Orleans:

I used to have a French picture sleeve EP that was in good shape that I found in Middle School when I went to Paris with my family. I saw it’s going for over $700 on Discogs. On that same trip, I got into a disagreement with my parents about how to get back to our hotel. I said we should go on this train and my parents disagreed so I went on the train and back to the hotel and left them there on the platform. They eventually got back to the hotel and were not pleased that I abandoned them. I was the only one who spoke French and it was adequate to get directions but not for extended conversations. I had taken a year and a half at that point.

I always snatch up records when bands 'become out of fashion'. It's usually when I actually start to like them after the hype dies down...
