AL COOL DADDY SMITH WITH PART I OF THE BOB CREWE
STORY ON ROCK-IT RADIO SHOW #5649

This show is the first in a two part series that will demonstrate
both the importance and talent of Bob Crewe as they have
impacted Rock and Roll since the 1950's.
Bob Crewe was a singer,song writer, dancer,record producer,
record label owner,painter and even a designer of record album
covers.. He is probably best know for his important work with
groups such as Mitch Ryder and the Detroit Wheels, as well
as The 4 Seasons - a group which  rivalled both The Beatles
and The Beach Boys during the 1960's. These artists however
are not the only ones who benefited from his work. People
such as Leslie Gore, LaBelle, Diane Renay and many others
as well fall into that category. All of these artists and
others will appear in these two show.
As well Bob Crewe Teen Age Idol phase will be examined
and many of his solo recordings from the 1950's and 60's,
most of which were written by him, will be heard.
Bob Crewe should be in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame & I will
attempt to make a case for this during the shows.

The play list is as follows:

1.) Don't Call Me Chicken-Bob Crewe  1957
2.) Silhouettes-The Rays  1957
3.) Big Girls Don't Cry-The Four Seasons  1962

9.) La Dee Dah-Billy and Lillie  1958
10.) Lucky Lady Bug-Billy and Lillie  1958
11.) Penny, Nickel, Dime, Quarter (On A Teenage Date)-Bob Crewe  1956
12.) Torn and Tattered Heart-Bob Crewe  1957
13.) I Can't Shake The Blues-Bob Crewe  1957
14.) Treat Me Like A Lady-Leslie Gore  1966

BILLY VERA'S ROCK AND ROLL PARTY WITH A SPOTLIGHT
ON 1947 ON ROCK-IT RADIO SHOW #5655

The year 1947 was a pivotal one. Big band swing was passe
and, in black vernacular music, two new forms were emerging:
bebop and the jump blues that in just two years would come
to be called rhythm & blues. Juke boxes in black locations
would throb with song that embodied both these idioms,
often in the same record. Perhaps the closest thing to the
coming R&B sound would be Jimmy Liggins's "Cadillac Boogie,"
the precursor to 1951's "Rocket 88." Riff-based tunes like
"Chicken Shack Boogie" and "Sneaky Pete" fit the same mold.
Songs like "Open The Door Richard" and the Ravens'
"Write Me A Letter" crossed over to the pop charts and the
big bands like Buddy Johnson kept that sound alive. Beboppers
Charlie Parker and Dizzy Gillespie could be heard on those same
juke boxes, as could great female singers like Billie Holidayand Kay Starr.

popularity to the United States Wolfman Jack.  He also introduced much of the
60s Psychadelic Rock to the UK.  In our catalog these shows are listed as

TWO ROCK-IT RADIO SHOWS SADLY SUSPENDED FROM AIRING.

Though we are thrilled with having Glen Gordon on board
here at Rock-it Radio.  We got a double shot of bad news
for us here at Rock-it Radio.
First Ted Loukes host of the Rockabilly Rhythm Show from
South Africa that aired over Rock-it Radio.  We received
word from Ted that he is currently unable to host the show
currently and not sure when he will be able to return.
We of course hope for a speedy recovery back to the Rock-it
Radio Airwaves.

Secondly, within days later we heard from Ken Strange a/k/a
DJ Spinning Rock Boogie from the UK host of The Movin' and Groovin' Show,
and Country Music Round Up show.  His External Drive holding
thousands and thousands of his songs he has uploaded over years
of collecting was damaged beyond repair during a move to a
new location.  A tedious task in deed of hours of work lays ahead
of Ken and we hope also a quick return to Rock-it Radio, both of
you will be surely missed on the Rock-it Radio line up.

COME REMEMBER WOLFMAN JACK !!!
Rock-it Radio has a very special way to remember Wolfman Jack. 
Arguably the most iconic of American DJ's.  Come check out the
Rock-it Radio Wolfman Page at:
REMEMBERING OFFSHORE PIRATE RADIO IN THE UK

In the mid 1960s  it was difficult for the youth to actually listen to Rock and Roll in the UK. 
The BBC actually ran only a few hours a weekend to provide the young Brits with this outlet. 
At night during the week they ventured to even tune into Radio Luxembourg to get there fill,
that broadcast rock and pop around the clock. 
To fill this void some venture capitalists decided to bring in commercial radio aboard
refitted radio ships.  And anchor themselves just  off into International waters off the English coast. 
Radio Caroline (named after Caroline Kennedy the U.S. President's daughter at the time) and
Radio London being the most famous.  Rock-it Radio  has a website dedicated to their ventures
and also have actual radio broadcasts available of these offshore pirates. 
We invite you to check them out our webpage at:
http://www.rockitradio.net/pirate.html
FINDING ROCK-IT RADIO ON THE 'TUNE IN RADIO' CELL PHONE APP.
We have had a few requests from listeners that they couldn't find us on the
popular 'Tune in Radio' App. on Android and PC and iphones.  Running a
search of 'Rock-it Radio' will actually list 100s of Rock stations. 
So, the best way to find us on this very thorough and extensive app. that
I love using myself is -
run a search on 'rockabilly' - there you will easily find
Rock-it Radio listed.
Our Tune in Radio App. webpage is also at:

Rockabilly bands looking for airplay

If you or know someone that would like airplay on Rock-it Radio we invite
you to submit your press kits to Rock-it Radio.  Our website for further
information is:
http://www.rockitradio.net/airplay.html

============================================
Come tune into  the World on your computer!

1000s of stations around the world now broadcast online.  We have a
link to some of the internet top directories to help you find these stations.
http://www.rockitradio.net/internetradio.html

============================================
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.

============================================
OUR SISTER STATION FIRST NATIONS BROADCASTING.

We invite you to also check out our sister station -- First Nations
Broadcasting. And tune into the rather Cool North of the Yukon and Alaska  
with our very own Debbie Snowdove!


============================================ 
Well that is just about it for this newsletter and playlists of our latest
shows. We hope that you enjoy them.
We will do our best to keep these shows on for at least 14
days and hopefully 21 days.
All the best always,
Bennie Dingo
