Favoriting The Long Way Home with Kris Holmes: Playlist from April 30, 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.

Last I saw him was 71 or 72. He was a hip kid, I was nerd on the side lines. Last I talked to him he was studying pedal steel guitar.

If there are pics of the Colorado band on fb I can see if that looks like who I knew. My main mutual friend with Brill died years back in car accident.

I don't know if that is his acetate but the Karl Mike Brill that is in that band is the guy who I know from Richardson HS. Several of my other HS friends as his FB friends. Will see if can get in contact. I would not be able to recognize the record as him or not. Never heard him sing. Knew him as guitarist, hottest of the pack around Richardson.
