Favoriting The Long Way Home with Kris Holmes: Playlist from January 10, 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.

Was there any ex voto image of the Marfa lights interfering with someone's internet service in this evening's previous playlist?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:30pm
Little Danny:

@still b/p: not that I know of! But it's probably wise to invoke the Marfa lights when committing to uninterrupted service out here

When you hit the SS office, Kris, give my regards to Odessa, or my curious regard of recollection, or something. I spent a few years there in the early 80s.
