Today we say goodbye to one of the greatest musicians in rock’n’roll, the bass player of Cream, Jack Bruce who passed away on October 25th this year. We briefly review his career through his songs with Cream, solo and Golden Palominos. In our Blues Alphabet segment we hear the original version of I’m So Glad, popularized by Jack Bruce, but written by Skip James. Rory Block, the greatest female blues guitarist who’s been around since the sixties, made a new tribute to Skip James.We also check out the new music by Dan Stuart hecho en Mexico with Twin Tones. We also have some new, promising bands today: Manateees from Memphis and Soft Shoulders from Montreal. We tie things up today with The Klitz, more legend than a band, four ladies from Memphis, organized and recorded by Jim Dickinson in the late seventies, which is now finally out on a 7″. Also, check out Eddie and The Hot Rods in our live in Cleveland segment, they really sounded great.
Today we present the new record for catl, a blues rock duo from Toronto, Canada. Another representative of the same genre, but a bit more traditional, are Backsliders from Australia. They have a new album out there called Dark Side. Jack Bruce of Cream is back also with a new record. Jon Spencer with his new single rounds out our very long blues segment today. Sonic Chicken 4 from Perpignan are also back with the new record called Shake Appeal. The leader of Tragically Hip, Gord Downie joined forces with The Sadies to make a new record. All of that stuff today in The Little Lighthouse!
