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.

Different Decatur St I think from the geographical hints in the lyric

Peter Mac:

We're doing ok, still locked down and staying home. Weird time here, shifting from lockdowns to trying to hit large vaccination numbers. The govt is staging a Vaxxathon this weekend (eg Telethon flashbacks).

I’m fairly certain it’s a different one Kris. That was definitely a Philly production.

Vaxxathon??!! Epic!! Got my third dose on Friday

yeah, I thought a vaxxathon sounded cheesy, but then lots of folks seemed excited about it, so, go nostalgia.

I had forgotten we got to L last week
Avatar 10:14pm
Kris Holmes:

Yep, just.
  10:15pm
Peter Mac:

I think they will, Kris. Where I live in inner city Akld, our area is at over 95% first dose and 67% 2nd dose/fully vaccinated. So the message is getting thru. Also have heard anecdotally of younger folks who have figured out they cant go to music festivals or bars if theyre not vaccinated, so are getting it.

Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:43pm
WR:

you did all that talking in the 1st mic break and it didn't include pledge rap? I was washing dishes so couldn't hear what you were saying but you went on for a while so you must have been talking about something more than the recordings you played.

PS- This is a good Eddie Lang!

The complaint received for the Last Poets also means likely that people who never heard them before got to hear them. All for the better.
