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.

Michael, no. I only just started unpacking the 45s today, it's like a record/cardboard box bomb went off here.

is this the original "certain girl"? (if so i don't know how i never heard it all these years.)
Avatar 🥁 10:12pm

yeah the K-Doe is the original

I guess *some* people skipped my Toussaint show.

Damn, these records! This sound!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:15pm
coelacanth∅:

Ohh! you slay me.
i had a feeling it was an Alan Toussant song.

- i WILL listen to that show. (though it's possible i did, and just forgot about that song)
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 10:18pm
Uncle Michael:

Actually, it was almost all non-originals and that show featured the Zevon version because there was already other K-Doe songs in it. So...I shouldn't taunt.

geezerette:

Sounds African,very nice!

If you dig new old funk, may I recommend Orgone. And I hear they're now working with Cyril Neville.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:22pm
coelacanth∅:

yes you shouldn't!
...when was that show, UM? i'm not finding it around the anniversary of his birth or his death.

Orgone are great. I had a CD in the car for a while!

UM, thanks for tip! Box set?

Uncle Michael:

I did my tribute a month before he died. wfmu.org...
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 10:25pm
Uncle Michael:

I saw Orgone for the first time opening for Galactic and the were great. At some point I was asking Kelly Finnigan of Monophonics if he was familiar with them and found out they're quite tight and have recorded together.

Hi JtotheK!
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 10:28pm

And speaking of funk. If you get a chance to see Galactic...*go*. For many reasons...not the least of which is one of the best drummers alive, Stanton Moore.

the way i've read it, Dr. John never intended to be Dr. John. he wrote songs for and created the persona for someone else but that someone else declined to become "Dr. John", so mac did it himself.
....or am i really confused?!

sounds plausible
