Tav FalcoThis is the last Little Lighthouse episode for this summer. Radio SC goes for a summer break and this show will take a rest together with them. We will be back in September together with the regular Radio SC programming schedule. For the last show of this season, we prepared some 20 minutes extra content for you. The most exciting thing this time is definitely the new Tav Falco album called Conjurations. Texas Tornados reunited without Doug Sahm and Freddy Fender, and have a new album called Esta Bueno!. Esta bueno is also the new garage band Davila 666 from Puerto Rico. The Half Rats is another good new garage band from Lafayette, IN. The main songwriter from King Tuff, Kyle has a new band called simply Happy Birthday. Mark Olson of the Jayhawks is also back with a new solo album called Many Colored Kite. So plenty of fresh stuff to chew on until we return in September! Keep checking The Little Lighthouse for occasional bonus shows and let me know if you’d like to see some of our older shows repeated while we’re on the break.

Tom GotovacToday we have three new records and four obituaries. We say goodbye to Pete Quaife, former bass player of Kinks and a Memphis musician Tommy Hoehn. We also have a small tribute to Tom Gotovac, a conceptual artist from Zagreb who influenced the local punk scene greatly and who also died recently. I did not find any musical tribute, but another Yugoslav actor, possibly the greatest one from over there Bekim Fehmiu committed suicide a few days ago. Today’s show is dedicated to Pete, Tommy, Tom and Bekim. Alejandro Escovedo has a new album out, it’s called Street Songs of Love and it’s again a collaboration between him and Chuck Prophet, just like the previous one Real Animal. Marah is now basically only one of the Bielanko brothers and he put out a new album called Life is a Problem. Melvins came straight out of nowhere to #200 on Billboard new albums list with a new release called The Bride Screamed Murder. Check it all out here:
