It's another tasty assortment of music on this week's TRANSMUSIC AIRWAVES (#202) that begins with San Francisco's The Residents interpreting “Blue Suede Shoes” in a great first set that also has Laurie Anderson, Morphine, The Rolling Stones (with “Gomper”), synthesist Mort Garson, and the latest from the Welsh band 9Bach.
Later on I'll remember John Wetton and Deke Leonard with songs featuring their skills from King Crimson (Wetton) and Man (Leonard), add “vault” picks from Annette Peacock, The Electric Prunes, Theoretical Girls, Phil Ochs, Brian Sands, and The Flying Lizards. I'll throw in more NEW material
from The Avett Brothers, Steve Lehman & Selebeyone, The Flaming Lips, Ty Segall, and Aziza (Dave Holland, Chris Potter, Lionel Loueke, Eric Harland).
Also heard will be international artists Hanne Hukkelberg (Norway), Krar Collective (Ethiopia), Neu(Germany) , and Ragnarok (Sweden), that will be intermixed with songs ranging from Patti Smith, Miles Davis, John Hardin, and Cherry Glazerr.
