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.

Kris...my man.
Avatar 🥁 ♥ 10:04pm
Kris Holmes:

Heya Michael! Your Xmas day was good?
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:05pm
Uncle Michael:

Yeah, very relaxed. We keep it low-key.
  10:06pm
little danny:

Hey Kris, all! Just got back to Marfa minutes ago - passed thru a foggy San Antonio earlier today
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:06pm
Uncle Michael:

How about you and the mrs.?

Danny!
Avatar 🥁 ♥ 10:08pm
Kris Holmes:

Yeah we were extremely low key, all we did was go see Star Wars in 3D last night, didn't leave the house or do much else otherwise.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:08pm
Uncle Michael:

2D for me, today. Then made gumbo.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:10pm
David D:

Hey, Kris, a pleasure to precede you and then hear you today. And hi Michael and Danny!
Avatar 🥁 ♥ 10:10pm
Kris Holmes:

Hi Dan. You went home for Xmas? SA was def foggy this morning. Did you fly to SA, then Midland or El Paso?
Avatar 🥁 ♥ 10:11pm
Kris Holmes:

Thanks for the Apache nod David, 6 hour show? Legendary!!
Avatar 10:12pm
still b/p:

Hiya.
It's the "sounds like" syndrome. The first few sung lines of Can I Say It Again sounded a lot like I Want You Back. But then the similarity was lost further on.

13 degrees here, headed to 4. Tomorrow below zero with the wind. Maybe wind chills of 80 below up on Mt. Washington later this week!
Avatar 🥁 ♥ 10:12pm
Kris Holmes:

I don't think the 3D cut is overly necessary of this installment.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:13pm
Uncle Michael:

Sorry I missed your marathon, David. Kitchen afternoon and evening, then I finished Revenge of the Sith. Watched all nine films in the last few weeks. Sunday I watched the whole original trilogy.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:13pm
Uncle Michael:

It was 7 degrees when I left for the movie today.
Avatar 🥁 ♥ 10:14pm
Kris Holmes:

the similarity to I Want You Back has been noted
  10:14pm
little danny:

We were in Austin with JD's family, came through San Antonio on our way back to pick up a mass shipment of votives from an old school Catholic candle company. Long story
Avatar 🥁 ♥ 10:15pm
Kris Holmes:

oh big day on the road then!!!
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:15pm
Uncle Michael:

You should try six hours sometime, Kris. I do about one a year. It's fun.
  10:16pm
little danny:

You ultra-marathon cats are a different breed. I'm exhausted after 2 hours
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:17pm
David D:

I agree entirely - the time goes by really fast for me.
Avatar 🥁 ♥ 10:17pm
Kris Holmes:

Ugh, I've done fours back in NZ before. Not sure I could stomach six.
Avatar 🥁 ♥ 10:17pm
Kris Holmes:

Although I have DJd six hours before at gigs
Avatar 10:18pm
still b/p:

I've got relatives under the Erie record-breaking dump, including a family member who can't get outa there when she intended to.

You planning a most mad massive luminaria display in the yard for New Year's Eve, Danny?
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:18pm
Uncle Michael:

I think Kurt G. did about 7.5 on the stream when either Prince or Bowie died.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:20pm
David D:

Danny, try it some time, maybe you'll get your second wind...
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:21pm
Uncle Michael:

wfmu.org...

Kurt's seven hours.

little danny:

They should grant you a US citizenship just for going to Star Wars 3D. You're 110% America all the way
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:24pm
Uncle Michael:

If I was to list my top ten non-Al Hi tracks...this would be one.
  10:25pm
little danny:

Hey still b/p! I love luminaria but they don't seem like much of a thing around here for some reason. I'm guessing they're more of a thing in San Antonio (as they were in Austin)
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:25pm
David D:

That's right, we need to find an English-language screening of Star Wars at some point. Would you say it's worth it?
Avatar 🥁 ♥ 10:27pm
Kris Holmes:

yeah it's worth seeing
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:27pm
Uncle Michael:

It's big, dumb entertainment of the first order. Who doesn't need a little spectacle?
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:30pm
David D:

Sounds perfect - now we need to see when it's on in English (dubbing is the general rule here).
Avatar 🥁 ♥ 10:32pm
Kris Holmes:

we drove 2.5 hours to Odessa to see the last one in 3D.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:33pm
David D:

Okay, that's dedication!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:34pm
Little Danny:

I would like to see any of your top ten lists of non-Al Hi tracks
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:34pm
Little Danny:

Not being the southern soul aficionado I don't really know my way around the label that much
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:35pm
Little Danny:

Would also like to see some top ten lists of Stax/Volt obscurities
Avatar 🥁 ♥ 10:35pm
Kris Holmes:

There are killers
Avatar 🥁 ♥ 10:35pm
Kris Holmes:

on both!

Hi Coel!
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:36pm
Uncle Michael:

The Complete Stax Singles collections are essential...for us non-crate diggers.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:36pm
Little Danny:

Hey Coel!

Just got home, got a second wind.... (13 hours of sleep in 3 nights).
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:40pm
Little Danny:

@UM: Oh, definitely! I've downloaded that Stax collection myself. I actually think I have a reasonable grasp of Stax/Volt's catalog at this point, just would be interested in others' faves
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:41pm
Uncle Michael:

There's a companion Stax rarities box coming out. I guess complete wasn't quite...
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:42pm
Little Danny:

When is your all-NZ episode gonna happen, Kris? Not joking here
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:43pm
Uncle Michael:

www.amazon.com...
Avatar 🥁 ♥ 10:44pm
Kris Holmes:

hmm, all NZ? Probably not soon hahaha.
Avatar 🥁 ♥ 10:45pm
Kris Holmes:

although, now you have got me thinking
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:45pm
Uncle Michael:

Oh, come on...you can do 2 hours of Flying Nun stuff, alone.
Avatar 🥁 ♥ 10:45pm
Kris Holmes:

sold it all
Avatar 🥁 ♥ 10:48pm
Kris Holmes:

I feel like Flying Nun is kinda done to death too.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:48pm
Little Danny:

Oh, man, easily six hours of quality '60s NZ surf/beat/pop/punk/psych, no? You might have to resort to compilations but still
Avatar 🥁 ♥ 10:48pm
Kris Holmes:

I could do a 2 hour show of that stuff no problem
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:49pm
Uncle Michael:

you do it Danny!
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:50pm
Uncle Michael:

you do it Kris!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:50pm
Little Danny:

Haha, at the age of 44 I have just begun my own deep dive into Flying Nun. You say Chills, I say Look Blue Go Purple, it's all fresh to me
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:51pm
Little Danny:

@UM: we all do it sir
Avatar 🥁 ♥ 10:52pm
Kris Holmes:

Ha. I was thinking of doing an LP show soon
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:52pm
Uncle Michael:

Someone on FMU did a pretty cool FN thing not long ago...Brian Turner, maybe.

Yep.

wfmu.org...
Avatar 🥁 ♥ 10:53pm
Kris Holmes:

I feel like I'd rather do an Xpressway or not-FN show instead lol
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:53pm
Uncle Michael:

I'm down!
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:54pm
Uncle Michael:

Getting to be time for me to brush my teeth and say my prayers.
Avatar 🥁 ♥ 10:54pm
Kris Holmes:

I think an all 45 50s/60s Kiwi show would be easier for me
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:55pm
David D:

Time for me to head home before dawn - thanks, Kris and good night everyone...
Avatar 🥁 ♥ 10:56pm
Kris Holmes:

Good night David & Michael!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:00pm
Little Danny:

Talk about a singer with nary a duff track, Ms. Lavette
Avatar 🥁 ♥ 11:02pm
Kris Holmes:

yep, solid all the way through the mid 70s
Avatar 🥁 ♥ 11:02pm
