For Tom Rapp
Episode #18-15 | airing 04-11-18
We recently lost Tom Rapp to cancer. He and his band, Pearls Before Swine, stretched the ears of many listeners in the late ’60s into the mid ’70s. This week we’ll feature some of his music, along with performers and bands that followed his lead including Judy Henske & Jerry Yester, Fraser & Debolt, The Incredible String Band, Roy Harper, Dr Strangely Strange and many more. So expand your musical horizons as we pay tribute to Tom Rapp and Pearls Before Swine … this week on The Sing Out! Radio Magazine.
