FB just recommended I friend the Vampi-Soul lhoncho.
Think I may go tomorrow to Botanica, now that he is back from Detroit. Think I might try to get Morbius to go.

Just started. Don't know how long I can stay.
― Cutset Creator (James Redd and the Blecchs), Thursday, 4 December 2014 03:07 (nine years ago) link
Did you stay long? Did Morbius go? Was it crowded? How many songs did you recognize?

Nothing to report that time, but this time quite of few things, but can't right now.

What was it? Oh yes, Mr. Fine Wine and his fiancée were telling me about when the had dinner with the Holland brothers and met McKinley Jackson. Then some Dap Kings walked in after playing a party to promote a friend of theirs new book called "Rock Star Remedies," I believe.

Nice. You got me googling--did not realize how many folks McKinley Jackson worked with.
― curmudgeon, Saturday, 14 March 2015 17:09 (nine years ago) link
He is kind of an unsung hero

I believe there are some stories of HDH humming snatches of melodies into restaurant phones with him at the other end then hanging up and receiving the orchestration the next morning.

Wow. Am looking forward to your EMP presentation on him some year

Peter Case is in town and I heard a rumor a mutual friend might try to bring him by Botanica after his gig.

Does Botanica still exist?
― You have seen the heavy groups (morrisp), Thursday, 20 February 2020 03:42 (four years ago) link
Last time I checked it did, which was about an hour and a half ago, while I was standing there in a big crowd of people including a best-selling author we went to college with, but I can text Mr. Wine for an update if you'd like.
― Something Super Stupid Cupid (James Redd and the Blecchs), Thursday, 20 February 2020 04:40 (four years ago) link
Sorry, that was the snarky answer I needed to get off my chest, sorry again. Have you been there? If so when was the last time?
― Something Super Stupid Cupid (James Redd and the Blecchs), Thursday, 20 February 2020 04:41 (four years ago) link
1998 or '99.
― You have seen the heavy groups (morrisp), Thursday, 20 February 2020 04:45 (four years ago) link
Sorry if my question was somehow off-putting; the original post was from 2006, and I was curious. That’s a heck of a run for a bar in a city that’s always changing.

Is Fine Wine still dj’ing on occasion in NYC area clubs?

Botanica gig is over. He hasn’t told me about any others. I can ask.

Like to think of Tracer Hamd as the Spider-Pig of the Tracer-verse.

Mr Fine Wine was spinning vinyl in the UK and now is visiting Detroit , I see on Instagram ( his page and Rubin booty one)
― curmudgeon, Saturday, 2 September 2023 18:56 (one year ago) link
DId you see the picture of him with Glen Matlock? (He asked me to guess who it was but I failed) Never looked at Mike R's instagram page, will do so now.
― The Thin, Wild Mercury Rising (James Redd and the Blecchs), Saturday, 2 September 2023 19:00 (one year ago) link
Missed that pic. Mike R booty has written for zines and NY Times and is from Detroit but is NY based for awhile. A good follow I think
