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.

Glad you’re feeling better Kris. Think I’ve still managed to avoid it but started being less cautious only in the last few months so feel like it’s inevitable at some point.

Long time Bay Area guy. Cut Chemist is based in LA, I think. Those guys used to roll thru Pittsburgh when I lived there, clear out entire sections of 45’s at Jerry’s Records. Dropped serious $$$$

That had happened during your first mic break too, but seemed ok after, so didn't mention it earlier.
