But author, syndicated columnist and Lexington, Virginia native KIRK READ has found the humor in being openly gay while growing up in the Bible Belt during the 1980's. He chatted earlier this year with ABIGAIL GARNER [host of "Fresh Fruit" on KFAI-FM/Minneapolis, Minnesota and creator of FamiliesLikeMin.com] about his latest book, "HOW I LEARNED TO SNAP: A SMALL-TOWN COMING-OF-AGE & COMING-OUT STORY" (published by Hill Street Press), and his discovery that you can indeed go home again [5:55] . 6:05 (www.kirkread.com) SEGMENT #3 - "TWO" I.D. by pioneering gay teen writer AARON FRICKE (author of "Reflections of a Rock Lobster", and with music by the B-52s) [:20] + The first record album by an "out" lesbian in the U.S. was Alix Dobkin's 1974 release, "Lavender Jane Loves Women". But in a special 2-part feature, This Way Out's resident queer musicologist J.D. DOYLE [who produces "Queer Music Heritage" on KPFT-FM in Houston, Texas and is the co-producer/co-host of our monthly "AudioFile" segment] explores early AUSTRALIAN queer music "herstory". In last week's Part One, he chatted with Nikki Mortier, a member of Lavender Blues, which released the first album in Australia by a lesbian band, 1978's "Wake Up, Sister", and shared excerpts from some of the cuts on that landmark album. This week, JD talks with the legendary JUDY SMALL about a shared gig in the early 1980s with Lavender Blues that jump-started her professional career (with an excerpt from one of her earliest queer-content songs, "Country Town Gaytime Blues"), and about her tenth and latest, but first "all gay & lesbian content" album, "LET THE RAINBOW SHINE" (with excerpts from "Everything Possible", "Influenced By Queers" and the title cut) [9:45] . . . . 10:05 (www.judysmall.net) Closing Continuity/Credits. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1:15 TOTAL PROGRAM TIME. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 28:55 ----------------------------Please note-------------------------------- Anyone with questions, suggestions, or *news stories* is encouraged to email Coordinating Producer Greg Gordon at TWOradio@aol.co ----------------------------- thanks! --------------------------------- STATION PROMO COPY: ANNCR: NEXT TIME ON "THIS WAY OUT", SMALL TALK AND MUSIC WITH AN AUSSIE LESBIAN MUSIC LEGEND NAMED JUDY, AND WRITER KIRK READ [reed] BRINGS HIS "SNAP" BACK HOME...
