Today’s show is dedicated to the wonderful Judy Dyble, the founding vocalist of Fairport Convention and the early singer for the band that grew into King Crimson. She passed away from lung cancer on July 12, this year. Other than that, we check out the new tunes from the 80s underground legends: newly reformed Divine Horsemen, Smudge, Dream Syndicate and The Jayhawks, including their renegade member Mark Olson, with his most recent partner in crime, Ingunn Ringvold. Cherry on top are newly discovered vault music from possibly some of greatest rock’n’roll bands in the history: The Rolling Stones, The Replacements and a project of the Yardbirds members Keith Relf and Jim McCarty called Together. If this doesn’t turn out to be a great listening, then nothing you ain’t a true rocker.

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.
