MATT THE CAT AND THE JUKE IN THE BACK SHOW WITH
ELVIS PRESLEY AND THE INFLUENCE HE HAD ON R&B IN
SHOW #4235
Elvis' R&B Influences
Much has been written about Elvis' enormous impact and popularity
over the years, but it's almost impossible to overstate the cultural
shift that took place as he rose to fame in 1956. Elvis was a musical
sponge. He absorbed all the music that moved him and those around
him, from Country and Hillbilly to Gospel, Pop, R&B and Blues.
This week's "Juke In The Back" focuses solely on the rhythm & blues
that motivated Elvis' early career. During the end of his first session
with Sam Phillips, Elvis cut into an inspired rendition of a semi-forgotten
Arthur Crudup gem and rock n' roll was literally born. From the
New Orleans R&B of Smiley Lewis, to the jump blues of Wynonie Harris,
Elvis dug it all and made each song uniquely his own. He wasn't
copying his R&B idols, he was merely using their material as a springboard
for his own blend of the White and the Black. Sam Phillips was right when
he said that it would take a White cat with an African-American feel to
propel this exciting R&B music into the mainstream and lucky for us,
he found that in Elvis Presley. Matt The Cat presents many surprises
in this week's "Juke In The Back," dedicated to Elvis' strongest musical
influence: Rhythm & Blues.
1. Swanee River Boogie - Albert Ammons - Mercury 1947
2. That's All Right - Elvis Presley, Scotty & Bill - Sun 1954
3. That's All Right - Arthur "Big Boy" Crudup - RCA Victor 1946
4. Good Rockin' Tonight - Wynonie Harris - King 1948
5. Trying To Get To You - Elvis Presley - RCA 1956
6. Trying To Get To You - The Eagles - Mercury 1954
7. Don't Be Cruel - Elvis Presley - Million Dollar Quartet, December 4, 1956
8. Harbor Lights - The Dominoes - Federal 1951
9. Mystery Train - Little Junior's Blue Flames - Sun 1953
10. Mystery Train - Elvis Presley - Sun 1955
11. One Night - Smiley Lewis - Imperial 1955
12. One Night (Of Sin) - Elvis Presley - Recorded, 1957, unreleased until 1983
13. GREAT 78 - Tomorrow Night - Lonnie Johnson - King 1948
14. Hound Dog - Willie Mae "Big Mama" Thornton w/ Kansas City Bill & Orch - Peacock 1953
15. Baby Let's Play House - Arthur Gunter - Excello 1954
16. Baby Let's Play House - Elvis Presley - Live on Louisiana Hayride, August 20, 1955
17. After Hours - Erskine Hawkins - Bluebird 1946

for Rhythm and Blues. If you have a request or comment or would just
