This week’s show features two tribute sets, at the beginning a short tribute to Mr. Malcolm McLaren, the evil genius behind the creation of the Sex Pistols and also the architect behind “Duck Rock” one of the most sampled bits of early recorded Hip-Hop. At the end of the show I do a special Record Store Day set inspired by a recent trip to San Francisco’s Groove Merchant (look for the dig deep post to feature one of those records later). In between lots of new tunes and tracks from groups performing at this year’s Coachella music feat. Enjoy, until next week’s show rolls around…
