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.

Hi Kris Heard some Australian 45s you would probably like/might own. It’s a band called The Traffic and side project of Ivan from Cooking on 3 Burners
Avatar 10:03pm
Kris Holmes:

Oh yeah, I know that band, fun stuff.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:07pm
Matt from New Orleans:

I heard a really fun interview of Ivan on last week’s Smoove & Turrell show on Totally Wired Radio that included almost all of the 45 sides and thus it got banned by mixcloud in the US. I heard it when it aired on TWR. I’d provide a link but unless you subscribe to a vpn service fairly useless.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:08pm
Matt from New Orleans:

My vpn trick will not work on mixcloud in the near future as they’re implementing the rules that currently only exist in the US worldwide.

yeah, i've been done with mixcloud for a while now, dead, like soundcloud before it

Just looked down, been packing records all night & am covered in mailer dust lol
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:13pm
Little Danny:

Wait, so Mixcloud blocks any copywrited content its algorithms can identify?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:15pm
Matt from New Orleans:

No there’s a bunch of stupid rules about how many tracks from an artist total in an upload and then another about them in sequential order. I think it’s 4 overall and maybe 3 in a row but not certain

mixcloud is a jerk

Fascinating. Thanks Matt.

Danny, I found the Fabulous Pearls 45 that you spun back in July.

JtotheK:

hey matt!

Kris Holmes:

you guys are in SF Franco & Chresti?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:21pm
Matt from New Orleans:

Cool Kris. Is it a one year contract or open ended?
Avatar 10:22pm
Kris Holmes:

one year but i should be good to just roll over as long as i meet my required performance level & don't hate it
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:25pm
Little Danny:

Ooo that is a deepie, Jason. I wish the title were different, but what can you do?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:34pm
Matt from New Orleans:

Your pronunciation of misery is interesting
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:34pm
Little Danny:

Haha, I do know this one!
Avatar 10:36pm
Kris Holmes:

found two & they both distort, this is the better one but it still is pissing me off
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:36pm
Matt from New Orleans:

Is this a roy Orbison cover?
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 10:37pm
JtotheK:

another 45 i found was 'got no money got no love' by big bob on the kelli green label. didn't know it, figured any 45 by "big bob" has to be worth a listen - it's really great!
Avatar 10:37pm
Kris Holmes:

not according to the writers credits but i am far from an orbison expert
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:38pm
Little Danny:

Sounds okay to me Kris. You probably can locate a non-distorting copy online inexpensively
Avatar 10:39pm
Kris Holmes:

it's like a $20 record. This Pace-Setters just needs a clean
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:39pm
Little Danny:

This Pace-Setters is far better than I remembered. Pretty surf-y, actually!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:39pm
Matt from New Orleans:

I might just know the roy Orbison version. By two Johnsons?
Avatar 10:40pm
Kris Holmes:

yes
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:41pm
Matt from New Orleans:

Same song
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:42pm
Little Danny:

Nice, Jason! That's a pretty big Belgian popcorn record
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:42pm
Matt from New Orleans:

His version is on the Big O album
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:44pm
Matt from New Orleans:

I knew that song title sounded vaguely familiar. Thanks for contextualizing it for me Danny. I heard that song a bunch when I was going to popcorn dances the year I lived in Brussels in the late 90s.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 10:44pm
JtotheK:

danny, figured as much....within listening to the first 5 seconds I thought 'ah, this has got to be a popcorn record.'
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:45pm
Little Danny:

I'm jealous, Matt!
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 10:47pm
JtotheK:

my dear deceased buddy Flavor Dave gave me some advice, and that was to follow ebay auctions in Belgium to keep aware of the 45s in demand on the popcorn scene to then (attempt to) scoop up locally here while still inexpensive. solid advice that i haven't been all that great at following.

(Matt, I'm jealous, too!)

JtotheK:

speaking of popcorn - have any of you caught the new popcorn program on the sheena jungle stream? thursday afternoon, 1 hour of popcorn 45s -- show is 'cannibal stew' and it is terrific! i've only caught 1 when it aired, rest have been archive listens.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:50pm
Matt from New Orleans:

I have not
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:50pm
Matt from New Orleans:

I never could figure out how to dance popcorn but had fun listening to the music and drinking beer
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:52pm
Little Danny:

Thanks for the heads-up on Cannibal Stew. Misleading show name, playlists look great
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:14pm

I like the Lazy Lester cover on the album that such a shame is on
