AL COOL DADDY SMITH WITH A TRIBUTE TO CHRIS KENNER ON ROCK-IT RADIO SHOW #4662

This show is a tribute to unheralded but important
New Orleans singer and song writer Chris Kenner.
Known for two hit singles from the 1960's he had,
as well, an impressive body of work  that is little
if ever played on today's radio. This body of work is
even more impressive given his laissez faire attitude
towards life in general and his career in particular.
His final years were tragic and are alluded to in this show.

The play list is as follows :

1. I Have News For You-Chris Kenner  1958
2. Sick And Tired-Fats Domino  1958
3. Land Of  A 1000 Dances-Wilson Pickett  1966
4. Nothing Will Keep Me From You-Chris Kenner  1961
5. Will You Be Mine-Chris Kenner  1958
6. Sick And Tired-Chris Kenner  1957
7. Grandma's House-Chris Kenner  1956
8. Rocket To The Moon-Chris Kenner  1959
9. I Like It Like That Pt.1-Chris Kenner  1961
10. I Like It Like That Pt. 2-Chris Kenner  1961
11. A Very True Story-Chris Kenner  1961
12. Packin' Up-Chris Kenner  1961
13. Something You Got-Chris Kenner  1961
14. Land Of A 1000 Dances-Chris Kenner  1963
15. Johnny Little-Chris Kenner  1962
16. That's My Girl-Chris Kenner  1963
17. Wind The Clock-Chris Kenner  1967
18. Fumigate Funky Broadway-Chris Kenner  1967
19. You Can't Beat Uncle Sam  1960
20. Don't Make No Noise-Chris Kenner  1961
21. Let Me Show You How To Twist-Chris Kenner  1962
22. She Can Dance-Chris Kenner  1964
23. Shoo Rah-Chris Kenner  1967

Rock-it Radio Program Webpage Reminder

Remember, if the show that you want to hear is getting close to the bottom of the list of radio shows, you should tune in as soon as you can. These shows to have a high audio quality require a lot of internet bandwidth and memory. And currently we can only afford the 30 latest shows online here at Rock-it Radio.  So, when a new show is put online it knocks the oldest one off the Rock-it Radio archives page.  Usually a show will at least last 16 to 20 days, once it is placed in the archives.

============================================
Come Join the Rock-it Listener's Club

Want to join our Listeners Club?? And be notified when new shows are playing on the Rock-it. If you are not a member of our listeners club it is really easy to join... just go to our main website at: http://www.rockitradio.net
