Then he rolled it all into one big sonic blast.
Rhythm & Blues become Rock n Roll when Chuck Berry began
writing songs aimed at teenagers, finally granting
them their own music. The Juke In The Back presents
part 1 of a 3 part feature on Chuck Berry's early career.

ROCK-IT RADIO CATALOG OF VINTAGE RADIO BROADCASTS
SUSPENDED.

In the past several years we have included a catalog
with every order for those that ordered a vintage
radio broadcast from our website at:
http://www.rockitradio.net/store.html

Over the months though we have seen a decline in
mail orders for the broadcasts.  And due to the
high cost of printing these catalogs we have decided
to stop sending our catalogs as a cost savings to
Rock-it Radio.  We do still have them and if you would
like to order one you can e mail us at rockitradio@netzero.net
and give us your address.  If their is a increase in
mail orders we will start sending out the catalogs but
for now just a expense we need to cut back on.

If also we are entertaining the idea of making the catalog
online if their is enough interest.

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.

HOW TO ORDER OLD ROCK-IT RADIO SHOWS = YOUR PURCHASES HELP US STAY ONLINE!!!

We have received many inquiries on how to order Rock-it Radio shows that  are no longer in
our on archives webpage.  These shows are still available on CD and mailed to you within 24
hours of receiving payment.  
To help search for older shows that you may be looking for you may want to check the Rock-it
Radio blog site.  Old newsletters describing the shows and playlists
are archived there and there is a menu bar on the right side that breaks down every playlist  
by month.  This website is:  http://rock-itradio.blogspot.com 
 


Then you may either pay by check or money order or paypal.  Rock-it Radio shows are only
$9.50 U.S. each and are studio quality broadcasts that were placed on Compact Disc here at
the Rock-it Radio Studio.  We have a flat rate  shipping charge of $1.50 U.S. so if you order
one or several -- it is still only $1.50
U.S. shipping.  And we ship worldwide, overseas orders are mailed out first class airmail.

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

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
