It is here that we clearly realize that his recordings from his first decade from 1955 to 1964 is where his importance lies. Beyond those years he continues to record and indeed will have one more hit in 1972( a number one in fact which in itself is disappointing given all the great work he did prior that time) with the double entendre tune "My Ding a Ling". That success however is the "exception that proves the rule". These two years saw him record two albums and a few singles. Both LP's will be sampled as well as some of the singles he recorded. The singles either did not chart or if they did at all were in the high numbers on such listings as The Bill Board Hot 100. One recording will be played from 1967 to introduce the listener to the next show which will be "Chuck Berry The Mercury Years". The Play List is as follows: 1. Butterscotch-Chuck Berry 1965 2. Right Off Rampart Street-Chuck Berry 1965 3. My Little Love Light-Chuck Berry 1965 4. She Once Was Mine-Chuck Berry 1965 5. After It's Over-Chuck Berry 1965 6. I Got A Booking-Chuck Berry 1965 7. His Daughter Caroline-Chuck Berry 1965 8. Dear Dad-Chuck Berry 1965 9. You Came A Long Way From St. Louis-Chuck Berry 1965 10. St. Louis Blues-Chuck Berry 1965 11. It Wasn't Me-Chuck Berry 1965 12. Jamaica Farewell-Chuck Berry 1965 13. Every Day We Rock and Roll-Chuck Berry 1966 14. One For My Baby (And One More For The Road)-Chuck Berry 1966 15. Viva Viva Rock and Roll-Chuck Berry 1966 16. My Mustang Ford-Chuck Berry 1966 17. Wee Hour Blues-Chuck Berry 1966 18. Vaya Con Dios-Chuck Berry 1966 19. Run Joe-Chuck Berry 1966 20. It's My Own Business-Chuck Berry 1966 21. Merrily We Rock and Roll-Chuck Berry 1966 22. Hoochie Coochie Man-Chuck Berry 1967 =============================================== MATT THE CAT & THE JUKE IN THE BACK SHOW WITH Pt. 2 TRIBUTE TO BO DIDDLEY ON ROCK-IT SHOW #6061 Last Show, the "Juke In The Back" featured every recording made by the innovative BO DIDDLEY during the year 1955. This time, the Juke picks it up in early 1956 and showcases BO DIDDLEY's influential and diverse releases through 1959. He remained mostly off the R&B Charts during this period. That's inexplicable, since many of the singles issued by Checker Records became R&B, Rock n' Roll and Blues standards. Many Blues greats have recorded and interpreted Bo's "Before You Accuse Me (Take A Look At Yourself)" and countless garage bands have taken a crack at "Who Do You Love." Matt The Cat also highlights the previously unreleased original recording of "Love Is Strange," recorded almost a whole year before Mickey & Silvia made it a #1 R&B smash. Why didn't Checker ever issue Bo's original? We close the program with Bo Diddley returning to the R&B and Pop Charts in 1959 with the doo wop ballad, "I'm Sorry," the Latin-tinged "I'm Crackin' Up" and the signifying "Say Man," which would become BO DIDDLEY's biggest selling record. Don't miss BO DIDDLEY: 1956-59 on this week's "Juke In The Back." 1. Swanee River Boogie - Albert Ammons - Mercury 1947 2. Who Do You Love - Bo Diddley 1956 3. I'm Bad - Bo Diddley - Checker 1956 4. Love Is Strange - Bo Diddley - Previous Unreleased 1956 5. Cops & Robbers - Bo Diddley - Checker 1956 6. Hey! Bo Diddley - Checker 1957 7. Mona - Bo Diddley - Checker 1957 8.

Every Hollywood Studio was looking for it´s own Marilyn Monroe who was all the rage. The closest contender to Marilyn were Jayne Mansfield and Mamie Van Doren. Marilyn Monroe, Jayne Mansfield and Mamie Van Doren - the three M´s. Ironicially it was Monroe´s own studio 20th Century Fox", that was looking for an answer, when Marilyn was trying to be taken as a serious actress. After a few A-movies, sadly Jayne Mansfield was reduced to making European pictures, that weren´t even released in the US. She did however be Pin Up of The Year" in the mid-1950s, and undressed for the same magazine in 1963, promoting her nude scenes in the movie 'Promises Promises". One thing Marilyn Monroe could never accomplish, though even studying at Lee Strasberg's Actor´s Studio" was a smash-hit on Broadway. Jayne did - Will Success Spoil Rock Hunter?" became such a smash. Turned down by Mamie Van Doren, it became a vehicle for Jayne Mansfield, made into a movie 1956, and bringing her rave reviews. She became the most photographed Hollywood Star of her decade. What´s maybe forgotten is, that she was also a singer, and had succesful shows in Las Vegas, and on the British cabarat circuit.

Barnum discusses co-writing the rock'n'roll standard, "Peanut Butter." The conversation includes memories of the group's career. In 1989 they were still working oldies shows. Billy and the guys discuss their formation and first recordings with Johnny Otis and their middle period recording for Leiber & Stoller, just before the Robins evolved into the Coasters.

| DECLINING SALES CAUSES S.O.S. SAVE OUR STATION Last newsletter we reported how October was the worse sales record for Rock-it History. Well looks like November might be worse. And if that is the case. To survive we will have to make some drastic changes. We plan to anyways. We found the main culprit is Ebay. Ebay is our #1 expense the listings of our shows costs over $1000 a month. And they have in the last couple of months changed their format to where you have to look for the full description of our items. It has severely compramised our ability to be found on Ebay by new buyers and sales are down there by 80%. We will probably be cutting our listings in the Ebay store if they don't improve this month. It now brings the daunting task of having our playlists of our vintage broadcasts put into a website .... all 600+ of them! And we would solely be selling our shows from our online store. Other cuts would include advertising on Google Adwords and this newsletter would probably be put in a new google group in lieu of e mail and we would notify you through our facebook page of Rock-it Radio when a new newsletter is out. We will notify you in another newsletter before these actions take place. |
| ============================================
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 |
| 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. ============================================= |
| DOMESTIC ORDERS FOR ROCK-IT RADIO SAVE 25% BY USING YOUR COUPON!! Every order Rock-it Radio receives for a vintage Radio Broadcast or a Rock-it Radio Show or Flashdrive. We include a Catalog along with a coupon that allows you to get 4 CD's for the price of 3. 25% savings. It isn't used much though and we are wondering why. It does have to be by mail order and their is a order sheet in the back of the catalog. We pass the savings along as we are charged less from Ebay and Paypal when we get our orders in through the Catalog. As they don't take out their portions they charge. So if you like to purchase more from Rock-it Radio think about doing the old fashioned way afterall we are a old fashiioned station and it might take 3 or 4 days more but you will be saving money through the coupon.
Our apologies we can't do this for overseas orders but we are already taking a huge
hit on postage that we also have to absorb mailing overseas.

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 |

Rockabilly bands looking for airplay

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