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.

Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:15pm
WR:

That was a first skipping record to hear in my experience of listening to your show for nearly a year. Since you often give a new record a full play on the show, a reasonable score.
  10:18pm
CC:

Don't worry Kris... just try not to go to the bathroom...just in case!!!...hehehe...:)

Hi CC.

Kris. You sound like usual on the mic tonight, to my wore out ears, anyway.

Vinyl verité. Hear 4 it.

Larry played some funky Albert King songs that he recorded with Allen Toussaint last night in the 70s

Yay, two from Rocking Sydney!

Jin is a solid record label

Some of those Tomato Albert King sides aren't bad. The New Orleans LP I remember having it';s moments

Howdy CC ! Kris! Matt! Guajira!

Hi SOP

This is an interesting Latin record. Just looking on discog and the label marketed to dance schools, Arthur Murray, etc.
Avatar 10:29pm
Kris Holmes:

yeah, it's legit, a bunch of dudes moonlighting
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:29pm
Matt from New Orleans:

I took Ballroom Dancing as my gym in college. I dated a few girls from the class and learned how to dance.

Great Casinos 45! Hiya Mr Holmes, hi everyone.

Hi Jason

Great gym option. During jr. High several of my friends took dance lessons but it cost $ so I got only an offer from my mom to show me and I knew she didn't know how to dance, so nah.

Gerry Thomas was a busy man in the 70s playing in the Bunch and The Fatback Band simultaneously

Dang, I'd say!

I know you don't ever leave them laying in a pile flat... you should always stand them up vertically, Kris...:)
Avatar 10:57pm
Kris Holmes:

Ha, I totally do lay them in a pile flat, but yes, longer term they are vertically in boxes
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:57pm
Matt from New Orleans:

It always seemed random to me that Young-Holt and Fontella Bass ended up on Paula in the 70s.
  10:58pm
CC:

Very good!!!...:)
Avatar 10:58pm
Kris Holmes:

Jewel/Paula had the licensing game on lock in the 70s, they were getting acts from everywhere

Great song!!!...:)

Kris Holmes:

Nope, still can't tolerate this 45 again yet :(
Avatar 11:00pm
still b/p:

It makes me inexplicaby glad that the vocal In Give Me Just A Little More Time includes the firm tongue flutter-trill moment.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:00pm
Matt from New Orleans:

My faves of that time are The Africa Music Machine
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:01pm
Matt from New Orleans:

I know you said we were back in the Cs but somehow that had slipped from my brain and I just noticed we were back in the Cs.

This song lets you know when you are really making a girl happy...:)

doesn't leave a whole lot to the imagination

WR:

Oh, man, this record so funny. Cuban lady fronting some Belgian musicians. A 1970 success after being around over 10 years.
Avatar 11:06pm
Kris Holmes:

Their other stuff isn't anything special, even the rest of the Jungle Fever LP is patchy
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:07pm
Matt from New Orleans:

I guess Cerrone & Peter Cetera didn’t make the cut

I think Central Line are a respectable Brit Funk band they would have been fine representatives of CE
  11:13pm
CC:

Some people get a lot of rain and some people don't!!!...
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:14pm
Matt from New Orleans:

Central Line is probably too synthesizery for you. They had a hit with Walking Into Sunshine in 1981.
Avatar 11:14pm
Kris Holmes:

You're probably right
  11:19pm
CC:

We gotta go eat something and listen to the rest of the show by the bedside...g'night all..!..:)

Goodnight

Kris Holmes:

night cc, thanks for tuning in
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:22pm
Matt from New Orleans:

Funny that this came on because I was about to ask if you’d thought about what Brother Ray you were going to play
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:27pm
Matt from New Orleans:

Looking forward to Bobby Charles as well
Avatar 11:29pm
Kris Holmes:

Sorry but I don't think I have any Bobby Charles 45s filed :(
Avatar 11:30pm
Kris Holmes:

I never find the ones I would file & only seem to find the same ones I don't want to file
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:31pm
Matt from New Orleans:

I dig Worrying Over You/The Walk more of a swamp poppy groove
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:45pm

Great show, but...gotta sleep now. Thanks for hosting! See you cats later.

Interesting, Epstein Enterprises of San Antonio. Was not aware of that label.

I’ve been stressed over the hurricane for the past few days. I’m glad it’s hitting Alabama instead but that takes a lot out of me each time.
