Today’s show goes out to the two blues musicians which we lost within one single week (not in the same day as I said in the show). First Keef Hartley went away, English drummer who has worked in the late 60s with several different bands, most notably his own Keef Hartley band. Then Hubert Sumlin, the legendary Chicago blues pioneer left as well. It’s sad to see them go, so we remember their work in today’s show.
Besides these tributes, we also have new albums for John Hiatt, Black Keys and The Love Me Nots. Pow Wows from New York City and Black Bananas from the Los Angeles scene are for the first time at the Little Lighthouse.

When Jody Reynolds appeared in the 50s with Endless Sleep he hit the charts on high positions. But it was a different time, when an underground rocker could really shake things up. And that’s what Jody was, he was the prototype for underground rockers. The sad news comes to us that Jody Reynolds died last month in California at 75. Complications with liver cancer, they say. We remember him in this show in the first half. The second half is reserved for Jody’s sons and daughters – the new underground rockers with great new records. We have Magnetix from France with the new record called Positively Negative and we have The Love Me Nots who recorded their new record in Detroit with Jim Diamond. We also have powerpoppers Mystery Girls and the Villanueva brothers who come from San Antonio with their band Hacienda.
