AL COOL DADDY SMITH WITH PART II TRIBUTE TO R&B
GREAT IVORY JOE HUNTER IN SHOW #4745

This show concludes my two part exploration  of the work
of Ivory Joe Hunter. Ivory Joe was the most benign of bluesmen.
His gentle nature and voice made him a favourite of legions of R&B
and Blues fans in the 1940s through to the 1960s and his
ability to integrate country music within his song writing
and singing predates Ray Charles who often gets credit for this.

The play list is as follows:

1. All About The Blues-Ivory Joe Hunter    1957
2. My Wish Came True-Elvis Presley  1957
3. Old Man's Boogie-Ivory Joe Hunter  1950

7. Big Wig-Ivory Joe Hunter  1947
8. Since I Met You Baby-Ivory Joe Hunter   1956
9. Shooty Booty-Ivory Joe Hunter  1958
10. I Got To Learn To Mambo-Ivory Joe Hunter  1954
11. Empty Arms-Ivory Joe Hunter  1957
12. Love Is A Hurting Game-Ivory Joe Hunter   1957
13. Yes I Want You-Ivory Joe Hunter  1958
14. Ivory Tower-Ivory Joe Hunter  1968
15. I'll Give You All Night To Stop-Ivory Joe Hunter  1968
16. Since I Met You Baby-Ivory Joe Hunter  1970
17. Yes I Want You-Ivory Joe Hunter (Alternate take)  1958

============================================
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 really easy to join... just go to our main website at: http://www.rockitradio.net
