The Long Way Home with Kris Holmes: Playlist from January 17, 2017

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.

Listener comments!
	10:03pm Dave in Vermont: Hi West TX
	10:03pm Kris Holmes: Hi Vermont
	10:05pm still b/p: I am Iron Man...or I am Spartacus. I forget.
	10:09pm Dave in Vermont: Whoever you are, tonight is the night to break out.
	10:11pm Kris Holmes: i found some rock 45s tucked away in a box so i thought i'd break them out for the first bit of the show tonight
	10:20pm still b/p: I don't know anyone who had many rock 45s, with most "rock" selections in the period found on everybody's albums and 8-tracks. 45s were the poppy thing. Wonder what kind of sales these acts reached with 45s?
	10:24pm Uncle Michael: rock
	10:25pm Uncle Michael: Oh geeze...it's like before puberty all of the sudden.
	10:26pm Uncle Michael: I may have been the world's leading 12-year-old Tull fan in 1972.
	10:27pm Kris Holmes: That's why I had to pick up unplayed rock 45s when I saw them, not as common clean as you'd expect.
	10:27pm Kris Holmes: Uncle Michael, not a bad place to be, they had their moments
	10:28pm Uncle Michael: Up till War Child.
	10:28pm Little Danny: Looking forward to this! The stoner side of Kris
	10:29pm still b/p: I (age 13 or just 14) bought Aqualung and Thick As a Brick at the same time, because the guys I was hanging with liked 'em. So I hadda! Was at a backyard party this fall with several musicians playing around the circle, and a guy started playing Locomotive Breath...on an autoharp.
	10:30pm Kris Holmes: ah, i didn't pull a lot of it Dan, just the first little bit of the show!
	10:31pm Uncle Michael: I have a pretty big collection of UK Clash picture sleeves.
	10:32pm Uncle Michael: CAT ON THE TURNTABLE!
	10:37pm Kris Holmes: YEP CAT!!!! Jerk!!
	10:40pm Little Danny: Your mum wanted you to rock, dude!
	10:44pm Little Danny: Probably my fave PE track
	10:44pm Kris Holmes: Locomotive Breath on an Autoharp?? That could be incredible!!!
	10:45pm Little Danny: How did American rap work its way down to NZ in the late '80s?
	10:46pm Kris Holmes: NZ was an early adopter of Hip Hop. It was huge. One of our NZ groups even traveled to the US to perform with PE & PE toured there a couple of times in their prime.
	10:47pm Little Danny: Wow, that's awesome
	10:47pm Kris Holmes: the production on these PE albums is so amazing
	10:51pm Kris Holmes: I pretty much gutted my extensive hip hop 7" collection back in the late 2000's when Japanman & Euroman were paying good money but I kept a few classics.
	10:52pm still b/p: The autoharp moment was pretty fun. He starts the riff...."Wait, what is that...? It's.....no,wait it's..." And then someone hit the vocal. I don't think they made it all the way through, but given the surprise and setting, I say well played, gentlemen.
	10:53pm Kris Holmes: yeah, sounds like a moment!
	10:56pm Uncle Michael: I didn't see lot of hip hop live, I saw Ice Tea wit Body Count opening. Body Count was the loudest band I ever saw. I saw the Beasties on Lollapalooza one year.
	10:58pm Kris Holmes: I just read Body Count are doing some festival soon!! Had no idea they were still a thing. I still have Ice T's debut 45 on Saturn "The Coldest Rap".
	10:59pm Doug Schulkind: I like every single thing about this stupendous radio programme.
	11:00pm Kris Holmes: Thanks Doug!
	11:02pm Uncle Michael: Somene made a cool documentary about DJ Monica and De La Soul are in it.
	11:05pm still b/p: Is that a sample from Best of My Love by the Emotions in there on Say No Go? Reminds me that I just caught a mid-70s TV appearance by Labelle doing Lady Marmalade with lyrics apparently and surprisingly altered to clean up some of the suggestiveness. Kept us safe from devil music.
	11:13pm Kris Holmes: yeah it's an emotions sample
	11:29pm Uncle Michael: It's lights-out time here. Play me out, Kris. Great stuff.
	11:31pm Kris Holmes: alright mate, will do, thanks for tuning in!
	11:57pm Kris Holmes: Thanks everyone!!
