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 saw Brian Jackson on Sunday as while I enjoy football, I hate both The Chiefs & Niners being a Raiders fan so no interest. Unfortunately I was one of less than ten people who were in the environs of NYC that evening that had the same idea. Brian and his band still played a set and they were tight and was great to hear some gems he wrote with Gil live.
