1969's Heya: Roots and Psychedelic Soul

EPYSODE 06: Heya! by J.J. Light.

Guest: J.J. Light (aka Jim Stallings).

Additional commentary by Uncle Herff.

*This epysode was released in season 1, when the show was titled "Psychedelic Relics".

In this epysode we hear the tale of how an American artist recorded an album featuring songs about his Navajo background, with the title track becoming a smash hit in Europe...yet inexplicably the record company decided not to release the album in North America. What?!?

The album was recorded with a huge budget and had most of The Wrecking Crew as session musicians, which automatically means you are in for a good time.

J.J. Light was an artist that should have gone on to more fame and fortune, but as it turns out success was his biggest failure.

I hope you dig "Heya!" as much as I do.
