The Long Way Home with Kris Holmes: Playlist from May 22, 2018

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.

	♥ 9:58pm Little Danny: Heya bud
	10:03pm Kris Holmes: Hi Dan! Missed you at ARC :(
	♥ 10:05pm coelacanth∅: howdy Kris, Danny and others en route
	10:05pm Kris Holmes: Hi Coel
	♥ 10:15pm Little Danny: That Out of Sights was so nice
	10:21pm Kris Holmes: yep, i love both songs by them that use that title lol
	♥ 10:23pm Little Danny: Are we hearing any of yer ARC stash on tonight's show? Or does that come after their cleaning, processing, cataloging and filing? Missed you and ARC, too!
	10:25pm Kris Holmes: The Dennisons & Gamma Goochee were from ARC but otherwise nope, still processing
	10:28pm still b/p: Need a dog or monkey to remind me to resume stream listening after getting diverted with something else, ‘cause otherwise my ass is deprived and disgruntled and whipped with regret.
	♥ 10:30pm Little Danny: That Dennisons disc was easily the best version of "Walking the Dog" I've heard. (A song admittedly I've never really loved.)
	♥ 10:31pm Little Danny: Surprised a UK-only 45 showed up at ARC, too
	♥ 10:32pm coelacanth∅: sbp you could reroute a stream to run through your bedroom or living room so every time you entered the room you'd see it and think "stream"
	♥ 10:34pm coelacanth∅: ...that's about the only solution i can think of. i think it's impractical to get a dog or a monkey.
	10:37pm Kris Holmes: Don't know if it's the best i've heard but it's a goodie. First I ever heard was a version by Roger Daltrey on a cassette my Mom had when I was a kid. I hated it & took me forever to come around to the song after I heard the better versions. Roger Daltrey almost ruined Walking The Dog for me.
	10:38pm still b/p: The meditative burble could zone me out and I don’t remember nothing, coel. Or else I get caught up a long while in swatting fish out, bear-like. Aerosmith’s Walking the Dog had a’holt of me for a while in about 1974, when I knew nothing of the pack of versions.
	♥ 10:41pm Little Danny: Oof, never heard Daltrey's version
	10:42pm Kris Holmes: youtube at your peril
	♥ 10:43pm coelacanth∅: i've never heard Daltry's version either, but the aerosmith version i never liked...and i don't hate early aerosmith.
	11:09pm Dean: Groovies did a decent version...didn't they?
	11:10pm Kris Holmes: i think so
	11:11pm Dean: That amazing Dan Armstrong clear plexiglass guitar, anyway, was worth watching. I had a buddy--Pooch of Flipside fanzine and Blow Up--who had one of those.
	11:13pm Kris Holmes: funnily enough, the other guitarist in my last band also had one
	11:13pm Dean: Wasn't Pooch, was it?
	11:15pm Kris Holmes: ha, nope
	♥ 11:24pm Little Danny: Dug that Ray Johnson. New to me
	11:25pm Kris Holmes: sounds massive loud
	11:39pm northguineahills: Hellos, Kris!
	11:39pm Kris Holmes: Heya!
	♥ 11:44pm Little Danny: Best Fascinations side!! Love it so much
	♥ 11:47pm Little Danny: Thanks for agreeing with me, mate
	11:49pm Kris Holmes: It's easy to do when you're right :)
	♥ 11:53pm Little Danny: Thanks for the fine programme, Kris!
	11:54pm Kris Holmes: Mate thanks for tuning in again!
	11:55pm still b/p: What I caught was goodshowgoodshow! Some I must hear again. Thanks!
	11:56pm Kris Holmes: Thanks, it's my DJ box so it's some of my faves.
