Kris Holmes's avatar View Kris Holmes's profile Favoriting

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

Yay, happy to hear you picked up some new 45's in Austin last weekend, Kris. I didn't make it over there. I was eating crawfish over at Kinda Tropical all Saturday and checking out the vintage market. Then went to ABGB later for pizza outside! It was a long day! LOL

Matt from New Orleans:

That last one sounds like it’s headed for the trash bin unless you can figure out what was causing the distortion
Avatar 10:27pm
Kris Holmes:

which one? i didn't hear distortion? the Shake A Poo Poo?
Avatar 10:27pm
northguineahills:

@Matt: Kris can send it my way, I like noisey soul!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:29pm
Matt from New Orleans:

Yeah Poo Poo. Could have just been the transmission but there was some static during the song.

(see Terry Riley's, "You're Nogood")

I believe it was a transmission error, not vinyl static. All sounds good on this front.

Bummer that she stopped recording in the early 60s. She was only around 30.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:00pm
Scott67:

Now the dropouts are dropping in.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:01pm
Candy-O'67:

Storms aren't that bad up here yet, Kris. Just heard a little rumbling a little bit ago...
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:01pm
WR:

Kris, what's you cleaning routine for records you buy?
Avatar 11:02pm
Kris Holmes:

That depends on how dirty they are
Avatar 11:04pm
Kris Holmes:

It starts with washing them with soapy water
  11:05pm
northguineahills:

Tacos are one the cheapest and tasty mealss I can make. Soups are cheaper, but take more prep time.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:07pm
Matt from New Orleans:

It doesn’t sound like running water or her stand mixer
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:09pm
Matt from New Orleans:

I dropped there, what is wiped up off a hardwood floor. I need to know!!😨
Avatar 11:10pm
Kris Holmes:

So weird, my signal log is showing no drops. McFlurry
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:10pm
WR:

some kind of McDonald's dessert crumbs on the floor
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:11pm
Scott67:

NGH, also the cheapest to buy readymade so I believe. Hence Student food. Sadly not so in Oz, $$$ & usually pretty bloody mediocre.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:11pm
WR:

it wasn't drops, did sound like some kind of interference, only affected the mic, from what i heard.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:13pm
Scott67:

You let a McFlurry in the house!!?? Dang kids!!🍨
Drop must be my end mate, gotta long way to my home.✌😎

Distinctive combo organ sounds on yhat Trash song.
