	10:05pm The Knave: Here's some info about Kris's killer premium... It's one you really want to get your teeth into - maybe Kris will post up an image too! The Long Way Home with Kris Holmes presents Southern Northern – A Hard Soul Primer: A collection of uptempo, raw, throat shrapnel soul sounds from the currently oh so unhip Hard Soul genre. South, North, East & West, the 1960s soul scene saw any number of gospel refugees, southern soul belters & raw voiced rhythm & blues wonders laying down hundreds of recordings in an uptempo raw soul style. Today these records lie neglected & ignored, pushed to the background by the oh so hip & smoothed out Northern Soul, Modern Soul & Sweet Soul trends. Hopefully this compilation of fantastic tracks doesn’t suffer the same fate. Lovingly chosen & recorded from all original 45s by DJ Kris Holmes, host of The Long Way Home on WFMU’s Give The Drummer Radio.
	10:06pm Matt from New Orleans: Guess that’s a reissue on 7”. Think it was a 78 release first.
	10:07pm Kris Holmes: To be eligible for prizes you have to pledge $20 to this show during the show, so hit the link!

	10:04pm Matt from New Orleans: Evening Kris & Candy. Afternoon Knave.
	🥁 10:04pm Candy-O'67: ↳ Matt from New Orleans @10:04 Hey Matt!
	10:05pm Kris Holmes: Oh boy have I got some prizes this week, all vinyl LPs from the folks at Colemine, Luaka Bop & Tipitina's
	10:05pm The Knave: Here's some info about Kris's killer premium... It's one you really want to get your teeth into - maybe Kris will post up an image too! The Long Way Home with Kris Holmes presents Southern Northern – A Hard Soul Primer: A collection of uptempo, raw, throat shrapnel soul sounds from the currently oh so unhip Hard Soul genre. South, North, East & West, the 1960s soul scene saw any number of gospel refugees, southern soul belters & raw voiced rhythm & blues wonders laying down hundreds of recordings in an uptempo raw soul style. Today these records lie neglected & ignored, pushed to the background by the oh so hip & smoothed out Northern Soul, Modern Soul & Sweet Soul trends. Hopefully this compilation of fantastic tracks doesn’t suffer the same fate. Lovingly chosen & recorded from all original 45s by DJ Kris Holmes, host of The Long Way Home on WFMU’s Give The Drummer Radio.
	10:06pm Matt from New Orleans: Guess that’s a reissue on 7”. Think it was a 78 release first.
	10:07pm Kris Holmes: To be eligible for prizes you have to pledge $20 to this show during the show, so hit the link!
	10:08pm Matt from New Orleans: I wonder where that John Lee track was recorded. Specialty was still deep in NOLA at that time.

	10:14pm The Knave: Thank you to Gill from Brooklyn, New York - for your pledge! Be cool, be like Gill and show your love for these groovy vintage tunes and WFMU .. Even a small pledge is like a badge of support for good music, GTDR and WFMU.. Hit the widget above or head to pledge.wfmu.org...
