Today we pay a tribute to Pete Overend Watts, bass player of Mott The Hoople who passed away from throat cancer on January 22 this year. His old buddy from the band, Ian Hunter, is going strong, with a new record and we check it out today. We also sample the new Chuck Prophet’s new album loosely based on the mysterious death of Bobby Fuller. We introduce Dexateens from Alabama, Last Night and Automatic City from France, Grumbling Fur from London UK and Rank Strangers from Minneapolis.
Ty Segall is back with the new record and so is Mark Sultan. Other than those two fantastic comebacks, we have a few new introductions. Sex Organs are two people dressed as – you guessed it – male and female sex organs costumes. Becky Warren is a new singer-songwriter from Nashville. TOY are a quartet from England and Charlie Faye and the Fayettes are three ladies. Besides Charlie, BettySoo is also there as well as Akina Adderley. Finally, Jason Simon from Old Testament is here with his first solo album. We also hear Stray Trolleys that were active back in 1982 with some cassettes, now available digitally.
Today we bring you the new music from the legendary John Mayall. Also Wolf People are back with the new record. Valerie June has a new one out called The Order of Time. We introduce guitar-sligner Philip Sayce, heavy Crobot from Pottsville, PA and James Hoare (ex Veronica Falls) brings us his new project called The Proper Ornaments. At the end of the show, we pay tributes to Gil Ray (from Game Theory) and Maggie Roche of the Roches, who lost their battles with cancer in the past several days.
