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.

I am sure I heard the Freebird requests in the early 90s. I never heard it at punk shows at the New Deli (yeah, I know) in NC but heard it often at club in Columbia SC during college (90-95)

All internet & cellular communication crashed before the 2nd to last song so the show is slightly incomplete (the joys of living in the remote countryside).
