Favoriting The Long Way Home with Kris Holmes: Playlist from May 3, 2022 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.

Hi guys. Not yet Matt, Thursday after work & then drive them straight to Austin.

Man, that doesn't sound like the Velvet Fog! (Torme)
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:07pm

Love this Ray Charles!
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:08pm
doctorjazz:

(though I do feel a bit dissed)
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:09pm
doctorjazz:

I heard this by Humble Pie first, which was a great version, but Ray's is IT!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:10pm
Matt from New Orleans:

Didn’t you play another version of that recently
Avatar 🥁 ♥ 10:11pm
Kris Holmes:

I played New Riders of the Purple Sage last week
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:13pm
doctorjazz:

That's right, (missed that version, though I remember it from way back when)
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:13pm
doctorjazz:

Chuck Howard's timing is a wee bit off here and there...
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:14pm
WR:

Did I miss the opening mic break with explanation of why we aren't doing the alpha box?
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:14pm
doctorjazz:

Great sounding party in the background, though...

Matt - I watched Three the Hard Way (finally) this week and Thumbs Up! Especially the scene with Jim Brown in the soundbooth instructing the Impressions.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:17pm
Matt from New Orleans:

Hey WR & Jason
Avatar 🥁 ♥ 10:18pm
Kris Holmes:

No explanation WR, I just bought a couple of things from a dollar bin on the weekend
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:20pm
Matt from New Orleans:

Thumbs Up from the 40s Jason?
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:22pm
JtotheK:

I have a number of additional blaxploitation films to watch yet. This month also features Richard Linklater. I've seen a good number of his films - but haven't seen suburbia from the mid 90s. So hoping to check that out.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:24pm
WR:

Hi Matt and J and Doc
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:28pm
Matt from New Orleans:

I saw SubUrbia as a stage play as well in NY Jason. Both were good but I think I prefer the in person version for the immediacy. Eric Bogosian wrote & directed the play and it was at Lincoln Center.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:28pm
WR:

Was barely aware of Wayne Talbert, did not know he has his own releases. Thanks for the pointer.
Avatar 🥁 ♥ 10:29pm
Kris Holmes:

Recommended if you like Dr John
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:31pm
JtotheK:

didn't know that, Matt - thanks! I enjoyed EB in 'Talk Radio' as well as more recently Uncut Gems.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:32pm
Matt from New Orleans:

I know some actors were in both versions but my memory is shot on that
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:34pm
Matt from New Orleans:

Enjoy your record nerding out Kris
Avatar 🥁 ♥ 10:35pm

That Standells song is sooo good! I think I have it on a record Sundazed put out
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:44pm
Matt from New Orleans:

Hope you have a great time here Candy
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:44pm
Matt from New Orleans:

Always nice to see you here on Tuesday
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:46pm

They have some albums that are good too but only got released in West Africa. One live album got reissued about 5 years ago.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:54pm
Candy-O'67:

Thx for the info, Matt
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:56pm
Matt from New Orleans:

Back to Os. Took a few for me to notice.

Sneaking in the Ohio Untouchables since they changed their name!

Kris Holmes:

ah, you'll be missed but enjoy it
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:01pm
Matt from New Orleans:

You should check out the new album Kris. You might enjoy it. Definitely got psychedelic rock & funk and influences in abundance.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:01pm
Candy-O'67:

Have a good time, Matt
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:06pm
Matt from New Orleans:

Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:06pm
Matt from New Orleans:

Night Jason
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:08pm
Matt from New Orleans:

I’m definitely hit or miss with that band. Liked some of the earlier stuff and less so with subsequent stuff but was enjoying the singles off the new one and dug the album since it came out.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:08pm
Candy-O'67:

Night, Jason!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:11pm
Matt from New Orleans:

I’m not complaining about the three songs but the filing does not make it easy to find all the relevant 45s easily
Avatar 🥁 ♥ 11:12pm
Kris Holmes:

you aren't wrong Matt
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:17pm
Matt from New Orleans:

This band broke up? Haven’t seen anything from then in a long time
Avatar 🥁 ♥ 11:19pm
Kris Holmes:

yeah a while ago
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:19pm
Matt from New Orleans:

The trumpet player put out an album two years ago that definitely doesn’t have this retro sound
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:20pm
Matt from New Orleans:

Definitely not a sound that you would probably enjoy
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:21pm
Matt from New Orleans:

I dug the album though
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:28pm
doctorjazz:

Been listening, had to take care of some work at the same time, great sounds!
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:30pm
WR:

Thank you for the tunes Kris. I look forward to hearing record show tales next week. Laters all.
  11:33pm
Scobot:

This Ordells tune is luscious.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:40pm

Thanks Kris. Gonna put the phone down. Have a great night all.
