Back after the Easter break with a show with the usual mix of old and new. Also paying tribute to musicians who have recently died, including Robin Lumley and Ray Shulman. Greatly enjoying a number of the albums released by the French label Dur Et Doux (out of Lyon), two great examples this week from a.P.A.t.T. and Ultrazook. Jazz end of the spectrum from John Zorn, GoGo Penguin, Charlie Parker, MultiTraction Orchestra. Blues from Paul Jones, Joe Bonamassa. Susanna Hoofs continues with her new album to cover other musicians music most interestingly. Prog from Porcupine Tree Ron Yuval (touring the UK in July). And of course we raid the archives.

I'm providing playlists for both tonight and next Thursday's shows, reason: we are away next Thursday (in glorious Pembrokeshire, Mike) and that show had to be prerecorded. Next Thursday's show will be the last until after the Easter break and the second of my guitar specials - I don't believe there is a guitarist featured here that I played in the first special.
Tonight's show includes a brief tribute to Wayne Shorter. Otherwise the older recordings include those by Steve Vai, Mike Keneally (also his latest), John Lee Hooker, Kansas, Steve Stills, Buddy Miles and Siouxsie & The Banshees (with Robert Smith). Music from the back catalogue is also found on Steven Wilson latest project: 'Intrigue: Progressive Sounds of Alternative Music 1979-89'... a 4 CD set which is almost prog band free. Then there is the new, with a number of new artists (at least to me)....

Apologies.What went out earlier today is the probable playlist for next week's show for the 2nd February: unusually I'm ahead of myself. INSTEAD FOR TOMORROW NIGHT. A tribute to David Crosby. Other older music from the James Band, (UK's ) Nirvana, Jefferson Airplane and Harry Chapin. Fusion and/or jazz of various sorts by Orchestra Gold, Joys Union Group, Mette Henriette, Marcus Strickland, Reuter Motzer & Grohowski. Electronica abounds and in addition: The Young Gods (with my favorite interpretation of Terry Riley's In C), Mahogany Frog. And much more.

Thanks to everybody who told me they liked the first Jeff Beck Special. I hope you like this selection, and tomorrow's show is the last concentration of Jeff Beck Music heard here for a while. I've found some music from his albums not played last time, plus a tune I've only come across this once. Guests with Jeff include Joss Stone, Imogen Heap, Nicolas Meier (who's solo albums have creating a stir over the last decade) and Seal. Otherwise you'll find Jeff guesting on albums by Cozy Powell (who's ''Tilt'' album included the tune 'The Loner', referencing Mr Beck), Stanley Clarke, Honeydrippers, Dion and (amazingly) Badger. Also three covers by Steve Vai, Paul Gilbert and Niacin.

The unexpected annoucement last Wednesday of the untimely death of Jeff Beck, shock me. As one of my long time top 5 guitarists (all of whom are innovative in different ways), I felt the need to give over a whole programme (or two), to this innovative electric guitarist's music, to show his history and various of those innovations. I've sneaked in a sort cover by members of one of Beck's former bands, otherwise every track will be played by maestro Jeff Beck. A second tribute show will be in a couple of weeks time.

A very happy new year to all my regular listeners and the less so regulars. This show was put together before the sad news that Jeff Beck died unexpectedly. So about to put a whole programme of his music for next week's show celebrating the pioneering playing of Mr Beck, who I managed to see live twice, once with the Truth line-up and the second time here at Loughborough as part of Beck Bogart & Appice (a memorable night, with Peter Bank's Flash as support).
However, tonight's music: a mix of new and old. Electronica from Steve Lacy, Neu!, Robeone. Experimental jazz from Lionel Loueke treated by Gilles Peterson, Frank Zappa and others. Snarky Puppy's Michael League in support of David Crosby; also Anglo folk from Coracle. And more....as writ here:

Tonight my review of some of the better albums that have come my way in 2022. All but two of which you would have heard tracks here at the ALT2 Show. Favorites:
Hedwig Mollestad, Hats Off Gentlemen, Its Adequate ('The Confidence Trick' is my prog album of the year), Macula Dog (an excellent wacky album of electronica).
New jazz increasingly involves electronica (2 examples below). Inevitable folk and blues. Also music from Africa and many other places. And lots more which I've had fun putting together.

The penultimate show before the Christmas break, this, in part, recalls the music of the late Christine Perfect/McVie: I hope to avoid the obvious tunes played in tribute by other radio stations. Jazz from: Robeone (here a tribute to Brian Auger and Keith Emerson), Bill Bruford's Earthworks, new acid jazz by Str4ta, Roy Ayers, Branford Marsalis on a Sting recording. More blues from John Hammond Jr with the Nighthawks, Robin Trower, the late Wilco Johnson and Roger Daltry. The more folky sounds of: Jackson Browne, The Deer, Doctor Fish. And then much much more.

Round to December already. A recently discovered solo album by Esbjorn Svennson means a track gets played, as well as starting with prize winning EST. The Brixton blues of Errol Linton again gets featured after my second view of the band live, what a tight band. Talking blues, amazingly they have found another album's worth of music from the Jimi Hendrix Experience. Christmas is coming along with the compilation albums, here Foo Fighters and Argent. Hedwig Mollestad has a welcomed new album. Dr Fish with a single released tomorrow. A tribute to Harry Chapin who would been 80. Wilco Johnson died last week, so has to be included. [Too late for a tribute to Christine McVie (ne Perfect) but three less familiar tunes by one of the finest British songwriters of the 20th century, scheduled for next Thursday]. And much much more.

Interesting jazz from London-based Edrix Puzzle to kick the show off. Plus more jazz from the Robert Glasper Experiment, Bill Frisell. A couple from 30 years ago: Jeff Buckley backed by Gary Lucas, Donald Byrd fusing jazz with hiphop. Enjoying the 2022 remastered Steely Dan 'Can't Buy A Thrill', still fresh after 50 years. Various world music from kora-player Dawda Jobarteh, and Afgan rubab-player Nasim Khushnawaz. Unsure about the Boss's new covers album, and something quite different, a rock quartet rearranging and playing Dvorak's American String Quartet (feedback welcomed). Folk sung in Welsh by Plu, my first play of the Welsh language since playing Gorgi's 'Barafundel' many years ago (btw Barafundel is one of the best beaches in the world). And lots more.

A fairly strong injection of the French avant garde tonight: Jean-Michel Jarre, Lasry Baschet (aka Les Structures Sonore), Pierre Henry (with Anglo-American band Spooky Tooth), and Magma. Jazz by the re-formed Headhunters, Ezra Collective, Cunningham-Laurenzi-Bryan and the Horse Lords. Devin Townsend's heavy/prog rock with personal favorites Jonas Hellborg and Morgan Agren somewhere in the mix; other prog from Polish band Fren. Pop from Wolf Alice, Sloan. World music: Tinariwen. Plus plenty else to tease and hopefully enjoy, and so fill out approximately 2 hours. Join Me at 9pm GMT tonight.

PLEASE NOTE UK clocks went back an hour this last weekend, EDT goes to EST on 6th November, therefore 4hr behind the UK for one week only, PST will be 8 hr behind for one week.
A variety of jazz from Mark Guiliana, Keef Hartley Band (the 7 CD boxset that this come from, is great value), Oscar Jerome, DiMeola-McLaughlin-De Lucia, Joe Deninzon (with Alex Skolnick). A brief dip into the Shulman brothers' discography. Taking advice on electronica from James D, so expect to see a slight increase played here: this tiem Macula Dog, Danny Elfman with Squarepusher, Stick In The Wheel - the latter two aremore examples of electronic treatments. The other odd bit of instrumental music, and very much more.

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.

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?

I hope you had a great summer and avoided Covid. Charlotte, our new Station Manager, has invited me back, and hope you can join me for at least some of the time and most weeks until next June, 9pm BST/GMT on Thursdays.
As ever I've selected a collection of old and new releases, from a broad range of music genres: rock, pop, prog, electronica, folk, jazz, world and sometime serious music. 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. Folk: Bryony Griffith & Alice Jones, Doom Flower, Ethan Wood. And so on. Enjoy.
BTW, check out The ALBUM ZONE site, for archived monthly 'Dick Heath Shows'.
Let me know what you think and for requests via this email address.

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.
