Hey Kris. Made an interesting discovery earlier today. I encountered a tune called Evolution by Magnum a band out of Southern California that recorded one album in 1974.

Kris Holmes:

That doesn't ring a bell, is it cool? Rock?

Heya Kris and NOLA Matt

youtu.be...
That’s a link to the album on YouTube. It’s definitely funk. The song I heard had afrobeat and James brown influences but the vocals were definitely funk.

Which side of that Fabulous Silver Tones 45 did you want to hear again?
Avatar 🥁 ♥ 10:07pm
Kris Holmes:

Sounds interesting Matt
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:08pm
Matt from New Orleans:

Worth checking out definitely. It’s expensive on vinyl and there’s a bootleg issue with people trying to pass it off as the original.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:09pm
Matt from New Orleans:

The album. There’s lot of comments on discogs.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:10pm
Matt from New Orleans:

I haven’t listened to the album yet as I encountered the song while listening to a radio show that ended at 6 and then jumped into my friend Vincent’s show which just ended.

Re: Magnum 'Fully Loaded' ... I found an OG this year at area record store. Hi Kris, hi everyone!
Avatar 🥁 ♥ 10:12pm
Kris Holmes:

let me look up the cover art, i might know it by sight
Avatar 🥁 ♥ 10:13pm
Kris Holmes:

hmmmm, i don't know it but would definitely buy it based on that cover art if i found it ever
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:13pm
JtotheK:

The track 'Natural Juices' is one that I think I'd heard comped or on some mix years ago.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:17pm
Matt from New Orleans:

I’m surprised it hasn’t been reissued. Seems like an interesting story from what I read online.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:19pm
chresti:

Hi Kris and Homebodies!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:19pm
Little Danny:

Big heya chresti and J2tK
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:20pm
Little Danny:

Any immediate faves from the 350 45 lot?
Avatar 🥁 ♥ 10:20pm
Kris Holmes:

Yeah, The Notorious Bandits, pretty sick fuzzed out garage
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:21pm
Matt from New Orleans:

I just let out a very loud laugh when you announced your purchase and I’m sure I annoyed my neighbors.
Avatar 🥁 ♥ 10:22pm
Kris Holmes:

It was a terrible lot from a jukebox co. all 80s-early 90s 45s
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:22pm
JtotheK:

hiya Danny!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:23pm
Matt from New Orleans:

Any hip hop?
Avatar 🥁 ♥ 10:24pm
Kris Holmes:

only if you consider MC Hammer & Vanilla Ice hip hop......
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:25pm
Matt from New Orleans:

Not the kind I have any interest in?
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:26pm
Matt from New Orleans:

I’m not sure why I typed a question mark there
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:28pm
Matt from New Orleans:

I liked stick shift

Checking in.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:45pm
Little Danny:

Ahhh, thanks for playing this Silver Tones! Was very curious about it...
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:47pm
WRfromElmhurst formerly nostrangerer:

I didn't clearly hear your description of where you got these records. If not at a "record fair" interesting that vintage vinyl is still not in the hands of collectors and resellers.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:04pm
WRfromElmhurst formerly nostrangerer:

Cool. Maceo (assuming Parker) doing a Meters sounding tune.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:04pm
Matt from New Orleans:

I was wondering when the sax break was going to happen.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:09pm
Little Danny:

Love Wes's A&M records! Bought "The Joker" 45 for the same reasons
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:09pm
Matt from New Orleans:

Putting the phone down and will continue listening. Have a great night everyone.
Avatar 🥁 ♥ 11:10pm
Kris Holmes:

Wes is one of my favourite jazz guitarists, i used to jam along with him in my bedroom as a young guitarist
Avatar 🥁 ♥ 11:11pm
Kris Holmes:

night matt
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:12pm
Little Danny:

Need this Charlie's Jive Quintet disc!
Avatar 🥁 ♥ 11:14pm
Kris Holmes:

San Antonio obscurity
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:15pm
Little Danny:

Yep. Flip is great too.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:15pm
Little Danny:

You should probably sell it to me.
Avatar 🥁 ♥ 11:15pm
Kris Holmes:

hahahaha
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:16pm
Little Danny:

That approach never really works for me.
Avatar 🥁 ♥ 11:17pm
Kris Holmes:

does it ever work for anyone?
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:25pm
JtotheK:

gonna catch the rest via archives - thanks for the tunes, kris! cheers everyone.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:27pm
Little Danny:

Different Jives. El Paso vs. San Antonio. At least according to Molina's Chicano Soul book
Avatar 🥁 ♥ 11:28pm
Kris Holmes:

ah ha, that explains it
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:36pm
Little Danny:

Oh man I love this Inell Young side so much. Wish it worked better as a dancefloor 45, though. Was it in your play-out box?
Avatar 🥁 ♥ 11:38pm
Kris Holmes:

yeah, it works ok for me but i have to bring the bass up a ton since it's such a weird master
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:41pm
Little Danny:

Thanks Kris
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:43pm
Little Danny:

And thanks for the always-fun show! Also, 80% sure I'll be seeing ya in Austin in a coupla weeks

Reid's Records, until this past Saturday the oldest record store in California (75 years), closed. Picked up the Tompkins Square 3CD comp of gospel 45s.
Avatar 🥁 ♥ 11:47pm
Kris Holmes:

75 years??!!!
  11:48pm
Dean:

For reals, and yet not the oldest in the country.
  11:53pm

Okay, 74: https://www.sfgate.com/bayarea/article/Son-keeps-alive-Reid-s-Records-founded-in-45-3274563.php
