AL COOL DADDY SMITH WITH PART 4 THE MERCURY RECORD
YEARS ON CHUCK BERRY AS ROCK-IT RADIO SHOW #6078

This show will feature his recordings from 1967 to 1969
when he had left Chess records for a more lucrative
contract with Mercury records. Most critics dismiss
these recordings as being inferior to those he made
at Chess. I will leave that judgement up to our listeners.
Suffice it to say that no real fan of the true
"King of Rock and Roll" would not want to hear them.
They are interesting if for no other reason then the fact
that Chuck was given great freedom in what he recorded
and how these tunes would be produced. The Play List is
short but the last track "Concerto in B. Goode" runs 15 minutes
and is truncated!!!

The Play List is as follows:

1. Flying Home-Chuck Berry  1967
2. Soul Rockin'-Chuck Berry  1968
3. Good Looking Woman-Chuck Berry  1969
4. Driftin' Blues-Chuck Berry  1967
5. Louie to Frisco-Chuck Berry  1968
6.It Hurts Me Too-Chuck Berry  1967
7. Fillmore Blues-Chuck Berry  1967
8. Feelin' It-Chuck Berry  1967
9. Ma Dear-Chuck Berry  1968
10. The Love I Lost-Chuck Berry  1968
11. Little Fox-Chuck Berry  1968
12. Misery-Chuck Berry  1968
13. Rock Cradle Rock-Chuck Berry  1968
14. My Tambourine-Chuck Berry  1968
15. It's Too Dark In There-Chuck Berry  1969
16. My Woman-Chuck Berry  1969
17. Concerto in B. Goode-Chuck Berry 1969

BILLY VERA'S ROCK AND ROLL PARTY WITH A LOOK AT
PRE ROCKERS OF 1946 AT ROCK-IT RADIO SHOW #6085

It was 1946. The War was over, our boys were home again.
The economy was jumping, and so was the music. Post-war music
was rapidly changing. The musicians were going in different
directions. Some, like Louis Jordan, Lucky Millinder and
Eddie "Cleanhead" Vinson, leaned toward entertainment while more
serious-minded young musicians, like Charlie Parker, Dizzy Gillespie
and Dexter Gordon, veered off onto the more intellectual sounds of be-bop.

The blues ballad was taking hold, in the hands of Billy Eckstine,
Dinah Washington and Arthur Prysock and jazz vocalists like Sarah Vaughan
and Billie Holiday were treading new ground. The stage was set for what would
become rhythm & blues, still called race music in 1946. Practitioners
included Roy Milton, Wynonie Harris, Joe Liggins and Johnny Moore's
Three Blazers featuring Charles Brown. The big bands were fading, but not
dead yet, as heard by Duke Ellington, Erskine Hawkins and the
Johnny Otis Orchestra.

The Ravens and the Jubilaires gave a hint of the vocal group explosion just
around the corner and a future star of the highest magnitude was hitting
his stride, Nat King Cole.

Here's two hours of great music from 1946.

================================================
WILL THERE BE A 2018 FOR ROCK-IT RADIO???

The last couple of newsletters we have whined about our
financial woes here on Rock-it Radio.  And in our newsletter.
We are currently $388.00 short of meeting our goal to
begin programming for 2018.  I am fairly confident that
The Rock-it Listener's will come through as we are
100% publicly supported.  And a Big Thank you to all
those that have already gave.  Myself and all the Jocks
here are volunteers at Rock-it Radio.  In past years
I would of gladly of made up the difference, this year with
medical bills pending I cannot.
We have some new plans for Rock-it Radio in 2018.  We
have cut back in areas we have to right now and others that
we have found is a bit out of date.
If we continue we will stop our 2nd streaming of Real Audio
/ Real Media format.  We have asked if anyone is still using
that format and noone came forward.  It was popular in the 90s
when we began streaming and have continued.  Therefore our program
page will only show and have one stream and speaker in mp3 format,
that most all modern computers worldwide acknowledge and capability.
We have cut our budget for advertising 100% until Rock-it Radio
gets back on it's feet.  we rely more then ever word of mouth and
grass roots campaign to let people know we are out here playing music
from the first decade of Rock and Roll.  And the first station to do
so that we know of back in 1995.
We also have several new vintage radio airchecks / shows waiting to
be released as well for 2018.
So, with positive thoughts we move forward and want to Thank all of
our listener's and supporters through the years.  We remain confident
and as usual the Rock-it remains one of the best rides of my life!
Thank you all and here is to 2018 with Rock-it Radio!
================================================
REAL MEDIA FOR ROCK-IT RADIO TO END ON
DECEMBER 31, 2017

Several months back we did a survey of who would
be affected if Rock-it Radio stopped their streaming
in Real Media.  It was a major audio and musical streaming
program we had at the beginning of Rock-it Radio in the
Mid 90s and have continued.  But no one ever replied to
our answer.  So effective 12/31/2017 we will only be streaming
our shows online in glorious mp3.  It will simplify the
look of our program page and save time in production.

==================================================

ROCK-IT RADIO GIVEAWAY FOR JANUARY 2018 (PENDING)

I have to say pending only because at the writing of
this newsletter we have yet to reach our goal.  But just
short of it!  But we are releasing our Jocko Henderson
1957 Rock and Roll Show over WOV in New York City.
In our catalog under RIR #179.

Jocko Henderson had a long popular DJ career in New York
City from the 50s & 60s.  And his style was energetic and
the Rock-it Radio Launching Pad is lucky to feature 3 of
his recordings.  We elected to go to the earliest recording
we have on CD back to 1957.  And it will be yours as our
Thank you for supporting Rock-it Radio in January 2018!

If you would like to view this item in our Ebay Store you
can, but don't buy it in January because it is already yours
if you order something else :)

============================================
 TRIAL RUN FOR ROCK-IT RADIO LISTENER'S ONLY
VINTAGE BROADCASTS ON FLASHDRIVE

It's hard to believe but we realize that perhaps our
declining sales is due to Compact Discs are a
aging medium.  And Flashdrives And digital is where it's
at.  So, I am going to make this offer just on a trial
basis for the remainder of 2017.  If you would prefer to
have Rock-it Radio shows and vintage radio shows that we
offer for sale on Flashdrive in mp3 format rather then
on CD we can provide that service here at Rock-it Radio.
Here it is how it works:

1.  E mail me at rockitradio@netzero.net and let me
know what shows you would like to have on Flashdrive.
Let's make it a minimum of 3 broadcasts.  Either any
Rock-it Radio show .... or Vintage Radio Show from the
50s through 70s that we offer at:
http://www.rockitradio.net/store.html

2.  The Cost:  Flashdrive will cost $5.00 and each show
that you wish to have will cost $5.00 - nearly 50% CHEAPER then on
CD.

3.  I will send you back a invoice within a couple of days, It will be
sent via paypal and it is not obligatory.  If you change your mind
just don't pay.  But it is easy to pay with any major credit card.

4.  Please allow up to 7 days for me to fill the order.  Once payment
is sent.  In case I get swamped with this offer.  Probably sooner.
I have to redigitalize all sold shows into MP3 and that takes a little
bit of time.  All orders will have $3.00 postage a slight increase but
that is due to it is shipped as a package and not envelope since it will
be over a 1/4" thick.

For example you order:  3 of our Alan Freed Radio shows.  And a Real Don
Steele show.  A total of 4 shows - That would normally be a cost of $40.00
on CD.  All together on one flashdrive so the invoice would look like

- Flashdrive $5.00
- Four Shows on Flashdrive @ $5.00 each - $20.00
- shipping $3.00

Total:  $28.00

Of course if you order more shows on the flashdrive you would continue saving
as you are paying the $5.00 per show rather then $9.50.

And of course we will be adding the monthly giveaway as well.

So for a invoice again just e mail me your wants on your flashdrive for
shows on mp3 at:  rockitradio@netzero.net

Also, check out this offer again at:
http://www.rockitradio.net/flashdrivemp3.html

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.

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.

============================================
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
