Favoriting The Long Way Home with Kris Holmes: Playlist from January 26, 2021 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.

They’re like a NOLA brass band super group that mostly just plays Jazz Fest and festivals and European gigs.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:31pm
WR:

Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:32pm

Henri Petras
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:35pm

northguineahills:

When I was 17 w/ the Boy Scouts, and went to England/Scotland. I bought a bunch of rekkis (they all got broken in the flight back)
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:58pm
Candy-O'67:

That sucks, NGH!
Avatar 10:58pm

Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:01pm
Matt from New Orleans:

Do you have the picture sleeve with the cartoon submarine?
Avatar 11:03pm
northguineahills:

Yeah, some of those rekkids would be worth something today (spent all of my allowance and my paychecks on of them).
Avatar 11:03pm
Kris Holmes:

Ouch Matt, but hey, I crack myself up!!!!
Avatar 11:03pm
northguineahills:

Matt from New Orleans:

I was hoping for Big Girls Don’t Cry
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:32pm
Matt from New Orleans:

I think of Riverside as a Jazz label
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:34pm
Matt from New Orleans:

Is that a made up name? I’m guessing so since it’s on Hit.
Avatar 11:35pm
Kris Holmes:

I think this exact record was issued under several names on Hit etc
Avatar 11:36pm
Kris Holmes:

I have it on another related label under another name
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:36pm
Matt from New Orleans:

It’s a solid cover
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:38pm
Matt from New Orleans:

Dug that. I don’t know why I remembered that was you.
Avatar 11:40pm
Kris Holmes:

I think I played the instrumental last month?
Avatar 11:41pm
Kris Holmes:

That one was too instense, it wasn't a "hit", the instrumental side got comped by Record Kicks
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:42pm
Matt from New Orleans:

That’s cool
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:44pm
Matt from New Orleans:

I think Inez and Charlie Foxx as a group could have counted separately
Avatar 11:46pm
Kris Holmes:

Ha, maybe, hadn't thought about it, Charles was on that one though
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:51pm
Matt from New Orleans:
