Favoriting The Long Way Home with Kris Holmes: Playlist from March 6, 2018 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.

Don't mind if I get in the running myself
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:08pm
Doug Schulkind:

Kris, as with many other shows, your pledge widget is not working. It will not show a goal, when you set it. It will not show the pledge progress for your show. It will just keep showing the overall WFMU pledge progress. Folks at the station are trying to fix this. To see your pledge total, open the GOAL page in your marathon console. The amount will appear in the little box, but then will be replaced by the station total. Refresh the page to see your total again.
