tried to buld him up in 1958 - Joey Castle. The wonderfully talented Vince Everett,
who recorded fine work in the 1960s, some of which would have come directly
out of the better of Elvis Presley´s catalogue at that time. Plus the German ´
Elvis Ted Herold who has a career spanning four decades now.
A handful of English language Songs exist from Ted Herold, some of these fine
tunes can be found in this Rockin´ The Joint Three Kings Special by Ted Herold,
as well as his german millionseller "Moonglight" from 1960, his 1961 hit with
a german language rendition of Elvis Presley´s "His Latest Flame" entitled
"Sie War All Sein Glück" as well another hit for Herold: "Ich Brauch Mein Herz
Nicht Mehr". As well as recent duets with The Queen of Rockabilly Wanda Jackson.

Enjoy, sit back, and find out why these three gentlemen Mr. Castle, Mr. Everett

MATT THE CAT & THE JUKE IN THE BACK SHOW WITH A
TRIBUTE TO THE HARPTONES IN ROCK-IT RADIO SHOW #6129

The Harptones never had a national hit record, yet they are arguably the
finest Doo Wop vocal group to come out of New York City during the 1950s.
Willie Winfield's soaring tenor matched with Raoul Cita's songwriting and
arrangements helped them hit the local charts and influence their peers.
What set The Harptones apart from many of the successful vocal groups of
the day was their perfectly matched harmonies. Whereas most vocal groups
had only one signature song, The Harptones enjoyed many, from their first
release, 1953's "A Sunday Kind Of Love," to "Life Is But A Dream" in '55 and
"The Shrine Of St. Cecilia" in '57. This week, Matt The Cat digs out many
of The Harptones' wrongfully forgotten records and gives 'em a spin in our
old Rockola "Juke In The Back."


1. Swanee River Boogie - Albert Ammons & His Rhythm Kings - Mercury 1947
2. A Sunday Kind Of Love - The Harp-Tones - Bruce 1953
3. I'll Never Tell - The Harp-Tones - Bruce 1953

BILLY VERA'S ROCK AND ROLL PARTY ON ROCK-IT RADIO
SHOW #6133  Early RCA Record Releases.

As Billy digs he notices it contains songs from the RCA vaults from the
early 1950s, some previously unreleased. RCA wasn't known for they're R&B
roster, but digging in the vault I came up with some juicy items by the Robins,
Count Basie, obscure acts like Mr. Sad Head, Melvin Smith and Big John Greer,
including his big hit, "Got You On My Mind." There were two never-issued tracks
from the Five Keys' only session for the label. I was also able to include

===============================================MORE DELAYS WREAKS HAVOC ON ROCK-IT RADIO
PROGRAMMING.
It's been a hard winter for Rock-it Radio.  First
being on a microwave network the first wind and ice storm
took out the microwave dish up on the mountain top for our
internet provider.  Just before the last newsletter
our microwave dish was blown around and lost the signal
as the wind bent our line of site target dish for internet.
Then health wise our lungs decided to do the winter gunk
and that layed me out for awhile, then our router went out on the computer
system, that was a quick fix though a couple of week's ago, just about to get restarted
with more programming and last week my brother passed away and
had to go out of town.
But it's looking up, Though we are having some serious rain storms
at least the weather is now hitting the 40s F. and the grass
is turning green.  While I am typing this newsletter on Sunday
afternoon I already have 4 new shows to go online, and will be
putting them up. And many more to follow.  I try not to put
more then 4 shows up a day.  I want to thank for the patience
of all our DJs and listeners.  My next goal is also to put more
vintage radio shows up for sale in the Launching pad.
www.rockitradio.net/store.html 
God Bless everyone, and thank you all for your continued support!
Here's to spring finally getting here!
God Bless,
S/Bennie Dingo

 ROCK-IT RADIO LISTENER'S
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

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 -

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
