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.

What were you thinking?! in advance, Kris.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 10:01pm
Uncle Michael:

Does anybody know the way to San Antone? Or Phoenix, Arizona?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:05pm
coelacanth∅:

i don't know by i know someone who does.

JtotheK:

hi!
Avatar 🥁 10:06pm
Kris Holmes:

I know the way to both those places, live in one & have visited the other a few times lol
Avatar 🥁 10:06pm
Kris Holmes:

Thanks for tuning in guys!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:06pm
Little Danny:

Hiya Kris and long way friends. Just saw the news about Denise today
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 10:07pm
Uncle Michael:

Could one of you help Charley Pride out, then?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:07pm
coelacanth∅:

rest in peace. Denise and France Gall.
Avatar 🥁 10:09pm
Kris Holmes:

New needles & cartridges on the turntables this week, they sound thinner so far & quieter....
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:11pm
Little Danny:

Wow, these sure sound different from LaSalle's "Love Reputation" 45, her only record I own
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:11pm
coelacanth∅:

my very recently former housemate grew up in san antoine and goes back and forth to visit. i'll ask him if he has any room for ol' Charlie.
Avatar 🥁 10:12pm
Kris Holmes:

I don't actually own Love Reputation & agree, it's a lot different!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:13pm
coelacanth∅:

didn't Denise (no implication here) jump on the disco train when it came through?
Avatar 🥁 10:14pm
Kris Holmes:

But yeah, moving to Memphis & recording with Willie Mitchell at Hi will make you sound not Chicago!
Avatar 🥁 10:14pm
Kris Holmes:

Pretty certain she did Disco in the late 70s, not my thing though so out of my realm of interest/knowledge
  10:16pm
Brian Poust:

As far as Denise disco goes, one could do a lot worse than her I'm So Hot album.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:17pm
northguineahills:

Sam of a ghost! Denise LaSalle as well!! (I'm running out of profanities).
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:17pm
coelacanth∅:

someone i lived with in the late 80s had a few 45s but when she said the name i already knew it, and i thought it might be from the disco era.
Avatar 🥁 10:24pm
Kris Holmes:

Brian, better or worse than the Ann Peebles disco stuff?
  10:28pm
Brian Poust:

I will have to re-visit the Ann Peebles stuff you speak of, but Denise likely gets a little funkier.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:28pm
Little Danny:

Oh yes this Carla Denise! Crazy that you found a copy of this in the wild
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 10:29pm
Uncle Michael:

We just heard a segue that's never, ever been done before.
Avatar 🥁 10:30pm
Kris Holmes:

Ann Peebles was coping well & then there was a terrible sidestep c.1979 :-(
Avatar 🥁 10:32pm
Kris Holmes:

Dan I really like the 45, wish it wasn't so beat up!
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 10:32pm
Uncle Michael:

How do you feel about Candi Staton's disco records?
Avatar 🥁 10:37pm
Kris Holmes:

terrible, I jump off at the last joint Fame/WB LP which is immediately pre-disco.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 10:38pm
Uncle Michael:

I'm not shocked.
  10:45pm
Brian Poust:

agreed. Candi doesn't fare well after she goes to WB, which is a shame 'cos I really want to like her gospel records.
  10:47pm
Brian Poust:

I do like Candi's first WB LP, actually which includes "As Long As He Takes Care of Home" but that's not entering disco territory yet. No Young Hearts Run Free....
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 10:49pm
Uncle Michael:

I tend to be overly forgiving because I'm a bit in love with her.
Avatar 🥁 10:49pm
Kris Holmes:

yeah that's the last one i ride for, solid LP, half Fame iirc
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:53pm
Little Danny:

This Sonia Ross is a favorite of mine. Will probably remain out of my price range forever...
Avatar 🥁 10:53pm
Kris Holmes:

that is what the reissue is for!!
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 10:53pm
Uncle Michael:

I'm pushing the keyboard away. Keep my ears filled, Kris. Thanks for the music.
  10:54pm
Brian Poust:

Only a few have surfaced of that one, Danny.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:54pm
Little Danny:

@Brian: doesn't surprise me!
Avatar 🥁 10:56pm
Kris Holmes:

goodnight michael!
  10:57pm
Brian Poust:

You can find her on the cheap on LPs by Bohannon, The Bar-Kays and the S.O.S. Band though.
Avatar 🥁 10:58pm
Kris Holmes:

that i didn't know!
  11:00pm
Doug Schulkind:

Very very superfine track right here, yes Sir!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:00pm
Little Danny:

Whoa, is she singing on those LPs?
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 11:01pm
JtotheK:

early night for me - thanks for the tunes, cheers everyone.
Avatar 🥁 11:02pm
Kris Holmes:

Hi Doug! Goodnight Jason!
  11:03pm
Brian Poust:

Backup, yes. Also Eddie Kendricks's "I've Got My Eyes On You" (recorded in Atlanta with SOS Band guys). She's on Bohannon's "Street Dance" LP, and I would need to review notes for Bar-Kays and SOS band specifics.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:04pm
Little Danny:

That's some good intel! Ross, like her labelmate Eula Cooper, had such a great "hurt" quality to her voice
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:06pm
Little Danny:

Why not a CD of San Antonio stuff, Kris?
  11:07pm
Brian Poust:

Which is interesting because both women are absolute sweethearts! That said, Ross works for the Atlanta City Prison, so she's seen her share....
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:07pm
Little Danny:

Whoa
Avatar 🥁 11:07pm
Kris Holmes:

I don't have enough killer SA stuff to do a good mix
Avatar 🥁 11:08pm
Kris Holmes:

i don't think........
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:12pm
Little Danny:

Your sweet soul show would also make for a killer premium

(I'll stop now)
Avatar 🥁 11:12pm
Kris Holmes:

ha, i've been doing so much sweet soul stuff lately!!!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:14pm
Little Danny:

GIMME MORE

i'm disliking the new cartridges
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:22pm
Little Danny:

Thanks for turning me on to that Grover Mitchell 45. Just checked the flip and it is so up my alley
Avatar 🥁 11:22pm
Kris Holmes:

classic cheapie!
Avatar 🥁 11:24pm
Kris Holmes:

my ex-girlfriend always called him "Groover" Mitchell, because she had it that that was his actual name, she was serious

Oh yes some hipster jazz

Gene Ammons one of my favourite hard tenors
