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.

Probably the tuna fish.

Too bad about the bouncey bounce between streams. It's a common and frustrating issue. Music is great, though!

Show sounds great! Little more significant jump cuts now, saying this so you know not to fret.

I have a bunch of the Rivingtons. And you were speaking of the Charmels, not the Jarmels, whom I adore. I'll clean out my ears with a little bit of soap.
