Favoriting The Long Way Home with Kris Holmes: Playlist from May 21, 2019 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.

Okay Kris. That last admission...Until I find a test pressing... Now I say this with love and respect, but that illustrates the difference between the committed and those who should be committed.

Huey Meaux turned out to be a real piece of shit aside from being a shady record label owner.

I was talking about Willie tee last night with Larry during his non WFMU show. I was still living in NY when Willie played at the McCarren Park pool in Williamsburg in summer 07. I went to the show and moved to New Orleans soon after and soon after that I was at Willie’s second line. It was all in less than 2 months. I think it was his last show. He looked healthy and put on a great show

Earl died between the show and when I moved to New Orleans

@J2tK: Me? All goes well. Listening to Kris, cleaning records from the Austin show, and packaging up 45s to be shipped out tomorrow. The complete human.
