Favoriting The Long Way Home with Kris Holmes: Playlist from December 12, 2017 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.

Hiya Jason!

Little Danny:

Oddly enough I always think of the Webs, D&K and Johnny & the Expressions 45s together; an aesthetic is definitely shared amongst them
Avatar 🥁 10:41pm
Kris Holmes:

Hi Dan, thanks! Also, the Mitch Mitchell & Gene King on Prix, but that's in another box somewhere, but i used to play all those four together always.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 10:43pm
JtotheK:

Another reminder that I need to flip over my 45s -- I apparently have this Johnny and the Expressions, never listened to this side... (I like the flip Where is the Party - but 'Now That' is great!)
Avatar 🥁 10:44pm
Kris Holmes:

yeah, it's one a lot of people sleep on because they never flip it over
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 10:44pm
JtotheK:

No wait nevermind...got my J/E 45s mixed up.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:44pm
Little Danny:

I love when that happens, Jason. Inversely, I don't know that I've ever listened to "Where Is the Party."
Avatar 🥁 10:45pm
Kris Holmes:

Shy Girl is the flip, also great mid/sweet soul
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:45pm
Little Danny:

Haha, whoops
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 10:50pm
