North Carolina band, Rainbow Kitten Surprise are re-issuing their 2015 album RKS for Record Store Day (April 12) as an expanded double album featuring nine previously unreleased demo tracks, and pressed on rainbow tricolor vinyl in a gatefold sleeve. We speak with singer Ela Melo about the history of her band, their roots, and the way they make their music.

And guitarist Steve Conte returns to the program to remember David Johansen, the New York Dolls frontman (and erstwhile Buster Poindexter) who passed away at the age of 75 on February 28. Steve was in the 2000s lineup of the NY Dolls and shares his stories of working with the man some called simply "David Jo."
