Kris Holmes's avatar View Kris Holmes's profile Favoriting

Twenty years of dusty fingers, frayed cuticles, & upper respiratory infections β€” from record digging and DJing around the globe β€” 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.

Yay, happy to hear you picked up some new 45's in Austin last weekend, Kris. I didn't make it over there. I was eating crawfish over at Kinda Tropical all Saturday and checking out the vintage market. Then went to ABGB later for pizza outside! It was a long day! LOL

That last one sounds like it’s headed for the trash bin unless you can figure out what was causing the distortion
Avatar 🥁 10:27pm
Kris Holmes:

which one? i didn't hear distortion? the Shake A Poo Poo?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:27pm
northguineahills:

@Matt: Kris can send it my way, I like noisey soul!

Yeah Poo Poo. Could have just been the transmission but there was some static during the song.

northguineahills:

(see Terry Riley's, "You're Nogood")
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:30pm

I believe it was a transmission error, not vinyl static. All sounds good on this front.

Bummer that she stopped recording in the early 60s. She was only around 30.

Scott67:

Now the dropouts are dropping in.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 11:01pm
Candy-O'67:

Storms aren't that bad up here yet, Kris. Just heard a little rumbling a little bit ago...
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 11:01pm
WR:

Kris, what's you cleaning routine for records you buy?
Avatar 🥁 11:02pm
Kris Holmes:

That depends on how dirty they are
Avatar 🥁 11:04pm
Kris Holmes:

It starts with washing them with soapy water
  11:05pm
northguineahills:

Tacos are one the cheapest and tasty mealss I can make. Soups are cheaper, but take more prep time.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:07pm
Matt from New Orleans:

It doesn’t sound like running water or her stand mixer
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:09pm
Matt from New Orleans:

WR:

Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:11pm

NGH, also the cheapest to buy readymade so I believe. Hence Student food. Sadly not so in Oz, $$$ & usually pretty bloody mediocre.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 11:11pm
WR:

it wasn't drops, did sound like some kind of interference, only affected the mic, from what i heard.
