Twenty years of dusty fingers, frayed cuticles, & upper respiratory infections ā€” from record digging and DJing around the globe ā€” 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.

Missed seeing Renee Geyer passed. I have to assume thatā€™s the reason behind it.

Kris Holmes:

Message from the station in case anyone has problems tonight:
Hi everybody - As many of you already know, our streams - ALL of our streams - have been very sick since Sunday morning. The problem started when we plugged in a required new circuit from Cogent, our main Internet Service Provider.

John's continuing to try to resolve this, but it may take another few days. If it can't be fixed, we will try to put things back to the way they were prior to Sunday.

The dropouts on the stream affect all players, and all streams, but they are intermittent. Things might be fine for a few hours, and then suddenly everything goes to hell. Most of the time when the streams drop out, they can be restarted immediately but the listener has to hit "play" again. But when the dropouts get bad, it happens over and over again.

I'm sorry about this. It's driving me crazy. Hopefully it will be resolved soon.

Thanks for the heads up. Working just fine now.

I've been listening all day and haven't had any dropouts since about 4PM ET. It was pretty bad before then and had some yesterday. So knock wood that that is over.

Hwy Kris, Matt, WR. Mike and Matt over on the RnS stream just lost half of their show before yours tonii, Kris. So, definitely problems over there. I have noticed a lot of drops the past few days and I've had to restart

sorry to hear that, Candy, that it isn't resolved yet. Middday when the drummer stream was having many issues the Sheena and Rock N Soul streams did not have issue at the time the drummer stream was.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:25pm
Matt from New Orleans:

She mentions Disco in the song Kris
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:26pm
Matt from New Orleans:

Iā€™m confused about that last comment. Ignore me.

Good obit from The Guardian www.theguardian.com...
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:34pm

Be There In The Morning is the song from her I hear the most due to its popularity on certain scenes in the UK
Avatar 🥁 10:39pm
Kris Holmes:

Yep, that's a popular cut
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 10:40pm
Candy-O'67:

↳ WR @10:25
Yeah, it's a bummer. Hopefully will all be resolved soon
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 10:43pm

↳ Song: "It Only Happens" by "Renee Geyer Band"
This is my favorite one so far
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:47pm
Matt from New Orleans:

The album version is better Candy but thatā€™s a good one from her
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:48pm
Matt from New Orleans:

Iā€™m tired Candy. I was wrong. šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļøšŸ˜‚

Haha!!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:52pm
Matt from New Orleans:

Wasnā€™t there one album that was recorded both in Los Angeles & Australia and only one came out. I think it was the LA version.
Avatar 🥁 10:58pm
Kris Holmes:

Maybe, it might have been the Be There In The Morning one
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:59pm
Matt from New Orleans:

Definitely two studio versions of that one so makes sense
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:01pm
Matt from New Orleans:

Done with Renee for tonight?
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 11:02pm
Candy-O'67:

I was thinking this was Wayne Cochran. He does this one, too
Avatar 🥁 11:02pm
Kris Holmes:

Yep done with Renee & yep it's a cover of the Wayne Cochran original

Will there be some Steely Dan coming up?

That's fair

I love Steely Dan so I would have no complaints

One time I DJd a Steely Dan after party & Walter Becker came over & talked to me about Hank Ballard & The Midnighters after I played a 45 of theirs

In Auckland?
Avatar 🥁 11:33pm

Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:39pm
