We start today with two delightful power pop compilations that came out on Austin’s Cheap Rewards Records. One compiles Radio Ready Lost Power Pop Hits from Wisconsin and the other one compiles Texas. Then we check out the new album for The Men, which surprised us with its quality. Mozes and the Firstborn is a new interesting band from Netherlands on Burger Records. Latin America is represented today with Aj Davila (formerly Davila 666) from Peru and Lorelle Meets The Obsolete from Mexico. We also check out two bands from UK, psychedelic band with infinite songs The Cosmic Dead and a more traditional folk band Dai and the Ramblers. We also have Dead Meadow for the first time in our show with a live track from their recent gig in Cleveland. Also, today we have a full line up of our bonuses: Mystery Train, Kozmic Blues and Sympathy for Rock’n’roll. Scroll down and check it out!

This 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.
