AL COOL DADDY SMITH WITH TRIBUTE TO R&B
GREAT IVORY JOE HUNTER IN SHOW #4728
This show features an artist who could play piano with the
best, sing with the best and write songs more prolifically
than probably any other artist ever to appear on
Rockit Radio. His work spanned many decades beginning in
1930's and ending in the 1970's and spanned many genres as well.
He is best know for his 1950 R&B number one hit 'I Almost Lost My Mind'
which also finished number one on the pop charts six years later
when Pat Boone recorded it in 1956. This artist had his biggest hit in
1956 with Since I met you baby which finished number one on
the Rhythm and Blues Charts that year and number 12 on The
Billboard Hot 100.
His name is... Ivory Joe Hunter, R&B's smoothest innovator.
Ivory Joe Hunter was inserting elements of country music
into his jazzy ballads and jump blues tunes as far back as the
early 1940s, In doing so he helped to lay the groundwork for
that cross cultural musical revolution that we now call Rock and Roll!!!
The Play List is as follows:
1. She's A Killer-Ivory Joe Hunter 1947
2. Ain't That Loving You Baby-Elvis Presley 1964 (Recorded in 1958)
3. I Almost Lost My Mind-Pat Boone 1956
4. All States Boogie-Ivory Joe Hunter 1947
5. I Have No Reason To Complain-Ivory Joe Hunter 1949
6. That's The Gal For Me-Ivory Joe Hunter 1949
7. Rockin' Chair Boogie-Ivory Joe Hunter 1952
8. Blues At Sunrise-Ivory Joe Hunter 1945
9. Jumping At The Dew Drop-Ivory Joe Hunter 1947
10. Pretty Mama Blues-Ivory Joe Hunter 1948
11. Woo Wee Blues-Ivory Joe Hunter 1947
12. I Quit My Pretty Mama-Ivory Joe Hunter 1947

MATT THE CAT AND THE JUKE IN THE BACK SHOW ON ROCK-IT RADIO SHOW #4735 - EARLY LITTLE RICHARD SONGS!
Early Little Richard: 1951-55
Before Little Richard's atomic howl burst through radios
in early 1956 with a feverish "Wop-bop-a-loo-mop alop-bam-bom,"
he was just another Rhythm & Blues singer struggling to find
his identity and sound. Growing up in a poor section of
Macon, GA wasn't easy and young Richard Wayne Penniman found
himself on his own, singing in clubs before he was 17.
However, he was a musical sponge, picking up vocal and
performance tips from blues shouters Billy Wright and Roy Brown
and some piano licks from the young Esquerita. He landed his
first record contract with RCA Victor in late 1951 and cut 4
singles that didn't go anywhere for the major label. Then in
early '53, Richard was on Don Robey's Peacock label where he
didn't fare any better. But through all the disappointing record
sales, Little Richard was building a style that would burst
open when he cut "Tutti Frutti" for Specialty Records in
September of 1955. Matt The Cat digs out Little Richard's
long forgotten humble beginnings and spins them this week
on the "Juke In The Back." This is truly the "soul that came
before Rock n' Roll" with one of Rock n' Roll's TRUE pioneers.
1. Swanee River Boogie - Albert Ammons - Mercury 1947
2. Blue Light Boogie Pt 1 & 2 - Louis Jordan & His Tympani Five - Decca 1950
3. Every Hour - Little Richard - RCA Victor 1951
4. Taxi Blues - Little Richard - RCA Victor 1951
5. Thinkin' Bout My Mother - Little Richard - RCA Victor 1952
6. Get Rich Quick - Little Richard - RCA Victor 1952
7. Why Did You Leave Me - Little Richard - RCA Victor 1952
8. Ain't Nothin' Happenin' - Little Richard - RCA Victor 1952
9. I Brought It All On Myself - Little Richard - RCA Victor 1952
10. Please Have Mercy On Me - Little Richard - RCA Victor 1952
11. Ain't That Good News - Deuces Of Rhythm & Tempo Toppers, Lead: "Little Richard" - Peacock 1953
12. GREAT 78 - Fool At The Wheel - Deuces Of Rhythm & Tempo Toppers, Lead: "Little Richard" - Peacock 1953
13. Rice, Red Beans and Turnip Greens - The Tempo Toppers Featuring "Little Richard" - Peacock 1954

RETIREMENTS & RESIGNATIONS ON ROCK-IT RADIO
We have recently gotten word that Denny Mc Connell host of the
Music
of your Mind show has sent us notice that he is retiring from radio.
We wish Dennis all the very best in his retirement and thank him for all
the shows he had given us.
On another note we are also sadly
loosing Tony Warner and the Timeless Tracks show - For just the opposite
reason. He joined Rock-it Radio thinking he was retired and had time
to do his shows. Because of his talent -- He has been called out of
retirement and is back working back full time in Radio. We wish
him well and going to miss both these shows greatly.

============================================ Latest openings at Rock-it Radio.
============================================
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.
============================================
Come Join the Rock-it Listener's Club
Want
to join our Listeners Club?? And be notified when new shows are playing
on the Rock-it. If you are not a member of our listeners club it is

our latest shows.

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!
