A certain relative introduced me to the music of Imogen Heap two weeks ago, so I play some here - although there was a belated realisation that she had worked with Jeff Beck. Oh, Chris also reminded me of Roy Harper.
Elsewhere, jazz from Jon Hassell, The Triggering Myth (Scott McGill guesting), Dan Berkson. A continuation of dipping into Warren Zevon albums. Blues from Savoy Brown, Keef Hartley and Govt Mule. There is folk and garage. Join me at 9pm GMT tomorrow

Hi Dick, just bookmarked your show page and I'm looking forward to listening to it. I was wondering if more recent shows will be added in the near future?
Many thanks for your interest. My weekly Alternative Alternative Show coming out of Loughborough Campus Radio (LCR), is now (officially) in its 35th Year, and I have retained recordings for at least the last 10 years output. When I remember, I will post 5-10 recent show recordings to those who request them... next due around Easter. If you send a link to the show's email address:
I also do a monthly ALT2 Show (plus a few specials) for the Album Zone site, where they persist in calling it the 'Dick Heath Show'. At the Mixcloud/Album Zone site you'll find streamable show recordings, since I've been with them (about 4 years). In addition new shows first go out via two web radio stations, scheduled to fixed dates and times, e.g the belated broadcast of the February 2022 show:
8pm GMT 15th March 2022 via TWCfm, Nottingham (The Wireless Company)
9pm GMT 24th March 2022 via RTI (Radio Tatras International)
Tonight a couple of tunes from Volume 2 Of Gary Lucas & Peter Willems EP 'Double Dare'. Also a couple of tunes from +1's (aka Kimare Sajn) forthcoming(?) double EP 'Sideways Immersion'. West coast 60's psychedelia in the forms of Peanut Nut Conspiracy and Strawberry Alarm Clock. German punk and rock and then established blues players. Brazilian rhythms from Airto. More from the excellent Bird In The Belly's new album. Of course some jazzy sounds. And the inevitable progressive rock from Marillion and Dream Theater. Check out the new sound of Turbo World's 20K.

The penultimate show before the Easter break. Mix of old and new. The old being the Marshall Tucker Band, Morgan, Blossom Toes and Andy Fraser. Welcome back to the Syn and Half Man Half Biscuit. Various takes on jazz from the Smudges (or are they playing modern serious chamber music???), Melt Yourself Down, John McLaughlin with Mahavishnu, Ogun Afrobeat, Stian Lundberg (big hints of Elephant9). Various world music from sl*g., Dawda Jobarteh. Then the prog from the aforementioned Morgan and Syn, Marillion, Flower Kings.
The last show, (going out on 31st March 2022), has been pulled together and is devoted to violinists. Also note, UK clocks go forward 1 hour this weekend to British Summer Time (BST), which I guess puts us 4 hours ahead of EST for a few days.
Enjoy

Some years ago I felt compelled to create a list of violinists in popular music, after being told there were only a few. I stopped at list of about 200, and guess since I could add at least another 30: that list is buried somewhere in Prog Archives. So tonight I give you a show dedicated to violinists/fiddle players, 28 violinists in total across 25 tracks: blue grass to chamber rock, blues to jazz. Electric and acoustic violins, the Norwegian folk hardanger violin to the Indian double necked 10 string. Some obvious musicians, perhaps some unexpected and some definitely obscure - all worth checking out.
This is the last ALT2 Show before the Easter break but back again at the end of April. Don't forget there are separate streamable shows archived at the Album Zone, worthy of checking out.
And also for our N. American listeners: the UK has gone to British Standard Time, and we might be 4 hr ahead of EST and 8hr ahead of PST, unless you guys also put your clocks forward last weekend????

Easter break done, we return with another 2 hrs or so of a variety of music, old and new. Multi-talented Gary Husband's band The Trackers, with a limited edition take of a Radiohead tune. A French band, Bess Of Bedlam, who has intrigued me with their take of Anglo pop rock. Another new remaster of a Family album. 40th Anniversary edition of Rush's classic album' Moving Pictures'. Hollis Brown attempts to cover the whole the Stone's 1968 album 'Aftermath': worth listening the origin? Future releases from Joyful Talk, Saajtak, Doris Brendel, Columbian band Mirlitorrinco. Reissues as digital downloads only, from Pollution and Little John. And just over 50 years Taj Mahal and Ry Cooder record together again.

Pleased to say that I have a copy of the forthcoming album by Hats Off Gentlemen, Its Adequate, 'The Confidence Trick': its the best prog I've heard in 2022 (thanks Malcolm for sending me a copy). Therefore a couple tunes tonight from it.
Listening to last week's show as it went out ,found I had featured a little much avant garde, so tonight's collection of tune is more centre field. Yet more of the French band Bess Of Bedlam who are into their version of 'Anglo-Saxon music'. New releases from Tigris ('Ethio-fusion'), The Trackers, Melissa Weikart, electronica by Peter Coccoma, the distinct sound of +1 (Kim Sajn), Ann Wilson tackles old Robin Trower and Robin Trower tackles new Robin Trower, gamelan rock from Balungan, Bantu soul by Batila, then Gyasi (said to be a cross between Bowie and Bolan). And the old: a couple from The Grass Roots, The Jam Factory, Elephant's Memory . Finally artists from between the late 60's and now - spot them here:

Slightly more jazz related tunes than the norm nowadays, and several of those favorites, including UK-based Scott McGill (up twice), Fuze, Adam Holzman, Conrad Schrenk, Buggie Wesseltoft. From the archives: a return to CTA, Santana clones Chango, Amboy Dukes with an 'interesting' question (answers please to this address), and the Stones in the 60's. Blues rock recordings made early on by both Stevie Ray Vaughan and Govt Mule. Disco of sorts by Paul Gilbert. Of course some prog rock. Robert Fripp, Flea and some of the Mother's wind section, together exploring the Arabic rock of Rai. And more.....

Some bands with common names coming up. The latest Flock (a free form UK nu jazz group) and the original (?) Flock with Jerry Goodman. One of at least 3 Southern Comforts, this one from 1971, sounding somewhere between Electric Flag and Taj Mahal. Other rock from 40-50 years ago: Elephant's Memory (John Lennon's NYC backing band), the Latin rock of Chango. A brief celebration of the late Vangelis (more scheduled next week). A continued listen to the best prog album of 2022 by Hats Off gentlemen, It's Adequate. Super folk by Katie Spencer. Reruns of old material by Todd Rundgren/Daryl Hall, Blue Floyd, John Scofield, Heart, Kevin Gilbert, Chicago/Al Green, Flora Purim, Graham Nash. Enjoy.

There is something common about 7 tracks being played this Thursday night, can you work out the link? Allsorts of jazzy fusion from Kazumi Watanbe, Trombone Shorty, Bruford, Earthworks, Brian Jackson, Jazzrausch Bigband, and I might even include the Chris Squire's tune. Progressive music from the RIO (Dave Kerman's 5 UUs), UK, Yes, James LeBrie, King Crimson, to the electronica (B.O.C.). Various other types of rock: Roy Harper, The Damned, Simon McBride, Bruce Hornsby, Brian Auger/Julie Driscoll, France Chang and Moogy Klingman. And mustn't forget the folk of Fellow Pynins, who are touring the UK this summer. That just about covers the variety, so join me at 9pm BST for just over 2 hours of interesting music.

Following on from the quiz last week, I can reveal the answer is Bill Bruford's new boxset/retrospective 'Making A Song & Dance', from which 6-7 tracks were picked. Two more BB tunes tonight: an alternative and the original version of 'Beelzebub' and a favorite from David Torn's back catalogue. Really hooked by Trombone Shorty's 'Lifted' album, funkier jazz from Lettuce, and something special by Shabaka (Hutchins). Then there is the Jazzrausch Bigband jazzing with techno, and Airto's Brazilian dance. Something for the aforementioned John: Ian Siegal's latest; also favs with me Chris Youlden with Savoy Brown.and Electric Flag, plus Simon McBride (following the footsteps of fellow Irish blues guitarists, Rory Gallagher and Gary Moore). Old folk by Dulcimer, new by Nick Hart. Last week I played something from Mark Moogy Klingman's first album, so had to go to Utopia's first for the long last tune for the evening. Other prog by Dopapod, and that super album by Thanks You Gentlemen, Its Adequate. Rock of several colours from Orion Tango (heavy!!), Doris Brendel, Bruce Hornsby, Graham Bonnet Band and Imogen Heap. Join me tonight for the penultimate show of this academic year (Oct 2021 - June 2022): next week a review of the last 9 months feature albums, with something from Bubblemath Math's new one.

This is the last broadcast until at least the end of September and is largely a show of musicians' albums I've played and enjoyed over the last 9 months and/or got positive listener feed back. However, spot the new albums not played previously. One of which is the new Bubblemath LP 'Turf' Ascension'. I've enjoyed their other albums, as ones giving something pretty new in the field of progressive music. The kind folks at Cuneiform sent me an electronic preview copy several weeks ago, with the request not to air this publicly until the 20th of this month or later. The embargo is off although I've had several private sessions listening to the whole - marvellous. You can hear a track from it at the end of the show. Other prog tunes included are taken from other superior albums released in the last 12 months, include those by: Hats Off Gentlemen, Its Adequate(Malcolm Galloway at his very best) and Peter Hammill/Isildurs Bane. Jazz and fusion from Gary Husband & Alf Terje Hana (aka The Trackers), Mark Lockheart, Portico Quartet, Ogun Afrobeat, Markus Reuter and Pat Metheny. From the number of times I sampled Michael League's album 'So Many Me', meant it had to feature here. John in Ilkeston, the other day flagged up League's Snarky Puppy's new single on You Tube; the long version is a must. New SP album soon and they are appearing in London's Wembley Area in October. A variety of other sorts of rock from +1, Joe Bonamassa, Voka Gentle, Ann Wilson, (the chamber punk of) Lung. Enjoyable live folk by Steeleye Span (with their American audience lapping it up), Ian Hart and Bird In The Belly. And those not mentioned so far: Bob Marley, Erich Clapton, and last but not least more (new?) rearrangements of Vivaldi.

So this Thursday expect jazzy stuff from: Soft Machine, I Like To Sleep, Alta Forma (friend of the show, Antoine Fafard's new band with an album out in December), Kokoroko, Mark Guiliana, Trombone Shorty. A variety of rock: Motorpsycho, Muse, Porcupine Tree, Steve Hackett, Megadeth, UTO, etc. World: Taj Mahal, Madalitso Band, The Three Seas.

No apologies, this Thursday's show has proportionally more old recordings than usual, including Joni Mitchell, Peter Gabriel, Bob Marley, Atlantis, Babe Ruth, Electric Prunes, Nazz, CCR, Rory Gallagher and a recording made here at Loughborough University in 1976 of the Welsh rockers, Man. Then the new: more from Snarky Puppy's newie 'Empire Central' (which I take to be in Texas?), the primitive folk (apparently) of the Elijah McLaughlin Ensemble, my current favorite album of electronic nonsense by Macula Dog, Primus is always welcome, a somewhat new sounding The Bad Plus, (new to me) Whiskey Myers, Titus Andronicus. Then a few others....................
Back to normal next week?

Dipping further into the new Snarky Puppy and Blue Note Re:Imagined albums; another Mark Guiliana album fusing electronica and jazz. More nostalgia: after playing Man recorded live at here last week, Nucleus recorded here at Loughborough University, also early 1976. Jazz meets techno (I'm told), by Jazzrausche Big Band. Archives raided for the Mamas & the Papas, Everly Brothers and Love. Blues of various sorts from Rory Block, Keef Hartley Band, Bernie Marsden. Quirkiness from Samla Mammas Manna and Macula Dog. of course folk and rock, and much more.
