Favoriting The Long Way Home with Kris Holmes: Playlist from February 6, 2024 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.

That Courtshop cut was just the kind of music I'd include if I was to -- as Marty the Bronx butcher says -- "Make a party."

They didn’t quite have a Detroit vibe so maybe California? Motown was out there by 72.

An outside production licensed in by Motown, so not a Motown recording.
