Today we review some parts of the blooming and booming new San Francisco rock’n’roll scene, lead by Ty Segall who has a new album out there called Twins. We also check out the wonderful cajuns from Switzerland, Mama Rosin, who made a new album in New York City with Jon Spencer and also have another ad-hoc project called Les Frères Souchet. Talking about the Francophone stuff, we have a new single for Perpignan’s Jack of Heart and including their potent cover of Gun Club’s For The Love of Ivy recorded live in Cleveland. We close the show with Amy Lavere and Shannon McNally with their new tour rehearsal tapes and with Lucy Kaplansky’s cover of The Beatles tune I’m Looking Through You.
Today’s show is dedicated to Nick Curran who we recently lost after two years of battle with throat cancer.

Welcome to a new Little Lighthouse episode, this time full with interesting new (and not so new) records. Preparing one of my previous shows, I came across the news that Austin TX band Glass Eye had a brand new record in 2006. So, I promptly got it and here it is in the brand new Flashlite Lighthouse. News comes to us that Chick Graning’s old ’90s band Scarce is back in the studio. Their new myspace page pleasantly surprised me with several brand new demos, so we check that out in this show. Our contemporary favorites Bellrays and Jay Reatard are back with new stuff: The Bellrays have a new CD out called Hard, Sweet and Sticky and Jay has a new 45. And last, but not least, we introduce a brand new band from France, Jack of Heart.
