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.

Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:24pm
Matt from New Orleans:

I got to see him at SOBs in 2007 in his first show after all his drug/legal issues in the 2000s. It was good but a little loose.
Avatar 10:29pm
Kris Holmes:

is that Penny Goodwin new or old? i feel like i know it but might be thinking of something else?

The only thing I remember about Madeline Bell is reading in her bio that she could wrap 75 chickens in an hour at the grocery store she worked in early in her career.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:01pm
Matt from New Orleans:

That ridiculous factoid embedded itself in my brain
