Our show today is dedicated to Dave Sweetapple, one of the kindest people in rock’n’roll that I had pleasure meeting. Unfortunately, news comes to us that he passed away earlier this month, leaving his family and friends inconsolably sad. Towards the end of the show, we pay a special tribute to him with some of the most interesting tunes that he was on. We also hear new music from Leeroy Stagger and Dangreens from Canada, Richard Duguay from LA, Kenny Michaels from Chicago, Reduced from UK and Shivas from LA. Over in Australia we check out the newest from King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard and Volcanics from Perth.

We start off with the new Spanish duet called Los Bengala. They have a new album called Incluso Festivos. Zach Jones is a new name from Portland, Maine. Rolin comes from Cleveland and runs a cool band called Nowehere. We also have some good old familiar faces – Rickie Lee Jones and Richard Thompson. His new album is produced by Jeff Tweedy and his old band Uncle Tupelo saw a release of an interesting tribute recently. We cull out Leeroy Stagger from that tribute. Today we say goodbye to Chris Squire, the bassist of Yes and The Syn.
