Episode #3 features an in-depth interview and DJ set with Daniel Hawkins, the artist who built a 50-foot functioning lighthouse in the Mojave Desert, in advance of the field trip to said lighthouse on April 18th -- details @ desertlighthouse.org -- musical interludes include The Friendliness Happening, Grouper, a rare Andy Partridge demo, Windy & Carl, an unreleased 1961 number by Jerry Landis aka Paul Simon, Da Barstow Bois, The Heritage Singers and more! We'll also hear the first side of Rick Pott's live performance of a Moldy Slide Show soundtrack at the Less Art Cabaret that was held up at Mount Wilson Observatory on April 4, and a song from Paulette Humanbeing from the same event. PLUS Oskar Sala rocking sound effects for Hitchcock’s The Birds on the Trautonium, and a 1963 surf single from Glendale that may or may not have sampled him.
