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.

Candy! Candy! People (Mom Whig particularly) have been asking about you for several days. You didn't tell enough people you were going to be away. We was wondering.

Hi Matt, Jason, oh, and hi Kris.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:04pm
Matt from New Orleans:

Do you have a VPS or something similar Kris? I feel like I’ve asked before but forget.

Hey Matt, WR, JtotheK!

Sorry, WR! Kris knew I was gone. Whoops!
Avatar 10:09pm
Kris Holmes:

Matt, no, I rarely have enough of a backlog to warrant investing in a VPI

So! I learned thru WFMU that the documentary 'Record Safari' is now available to stream for free via youtube. I haven't watched yet. Might start tonight, or this week. Anyone seen yet?
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:22pm
Matt from New Orleans:

I’ve never had that happen at the dentist
Avatar 10:23pm
WLSClark:

Kris, I know your thoughts on blood pressure. I retired 2 years ago and now I am on meds and TRYING to eat better, but I will NOT stop coffee, no way! I do exercise daily and jog, so trying. Keep the faith, Kris!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:24pm
Candy-O'67:

Oh, man, Kris! So sorry no coffee!!!😫
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:24pm
JtotheK:

And I read an Andy Kaufman book recently, so then I finally watched the Jim & Andy documentary.
Avatar 10:25pm
Kris Holmes:

I saw Record Safari, it's fine.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:26pm
JtotheK:

Kris are you a fan of green tea? That's my late morning / early afternoon option. I should likely cut back a bit on coffee in the AM.
Avatar 10:27pm
Kris Holmes:

Thanks WLSClark, I'm gonna start exercising daily again & eating better then go back for bloodworm in a couple weeks, see how we go. Check up again in October.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:27pm
JtotheK:

"Record Safari - It's Fine -- Kris Holmes" - that's the pull quote on the poster, I imagine! And your review - has convinced me to attempt to watch tonight and not fall asleep right away.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:28pm
Matt from New Orleans:

Didn’t one of the guys play in both these bands
Avatar 10:29pm
WLSClark:

Kris, it starts tough but gets easier fast!
Avatar 10:29pm
Kris Holmes:

Ha, sorry, I think it'd be amazing if I wasn't basically watching someone else being myself on vacation
Avatar 10:30pm
Kris Holmes:

Matt yes, the singer, for Zakaray Thaks sang on one Liberty Bell 45 while their singer was in the military or something like that?
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:31pm
Candy-O'67:

That Liberty Bell was smokin'!!🔥
Avatar 10:32pm
Kris Holmes:

I just remembered I'm in a background shot of Record Safari at Austin Record Convention

Candy-O'67:

Cool, Kris!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:33pm
Candy-O'67:

One of my fave Hollies songs!
Avatar 10:34pm
WLSClark:

The video of this on their DVD is just amazing!
Avatar 10:34pm
Kris Holmes:

I like Alex & I liked the movie, Jason you should totally watch it
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:34pm
Matt from New Orleans:

This Hollies song must have been released not long before Liberty shut down Imperial
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:34pm
Candy-O'67:

I'm outside with my dog right now. Sweating to death!! Yuk!
Avatar 10:35pm
Kris Holmes:

Couple of British Invasion bands on Imperial iirc
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:36pm
Candy-O'67:

92 at 9:36 pm with real feel 98! Ridiculous!
Avatar 10:37pm
WLSClark:

Someone was commenting on the new American Pie documentary about that hit and they said they glossed over Dion's bet for $35 that lost him seat on that airplane. We would have never had this song. What would Buddy have given us instead, we will never know.
Avatar 10:37pm
WLSClark:

Candy, dogs CAN be a problem sometimes.
Avatar 10:38pm
Kris Holmes:

Dion lost a seat? Man, everyone must have had a seat on that plane!!!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:38pm
Matt from New Orleans:

Only 84/91 here Candy not that that’s pleasant
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:40pm
Candy-O'67:

I hear y'all have been getting a lot of rain on the afternoons, too, Matt. No rain here! Total drought!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:42pm
Matt from New Orleans:

I have no clue. That random fact popped into my head when I saw them B2B.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:43pm
WR:

Hot guitar riff!

There's that great early Tommy Boyce song!
Avatar 10:48pm
Kris Holmes:

I got back to zero on new arrival 45s to be processed so we're gonna hear some dupes of things I've played recently because there were multiple copies & I lost track.
Avatar 10:48pm
WLSClark:

Those Imperial 45s flew off the shleves by Fats in 50's and then Ricky in 60's!
Avatar 10:49pm
Kris Holmes:

But the to be sorted box is EMPTY for the first time in a couple months

Not complaining, Kris!

Matt from New Orleans:

Be My Guest was one of the most influential records ever recorded if you consider where Jamaican music went from ska and how much Jamaican music influenced later popular music
Avatar 10:53pm
Kris Holmes:

Gonna flip this over for part 2 because it's such a throat shrapnel delight
Avatar 10:53pm
WLSClark:

I gotta go but Candy can return in my place. She's more fun anyway. haha

Eric R:

this is a great one. Ocarina? Speeded up saxaphone? I've never figured out the solo
Avatar 11:20pm

It sounds like a muted trumpet doubling the sax?

NOLA, a city state, hardly part of Lousiana. I mean, it's definitely in LA but then again....
Avatar 11:47pm
Eric R:

which reminds me, the video of Chuck doing Sweet Little Sixteen on the Dick Clark Show is so superb!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:49pm
Matt from New Orleans:

It definitely is part of Louisiana. Just a dysfunctional unique and place that’s far less interested in trying to tell people how to live than the rest of the state.
