AL COOL DADDY SMITH WITH A TRIBUTE TO JIMMY
AND JOHNNY IN ROCK-IT RADIO SHOW #4787
This show is part one of a two part series that will
examine the recordings of an unheralded but outstanding
R&B performer Jimmy "T-99" Nelson.
Jimmy Nelson recorded across almost six decades beginning
in the 1940's and stretching into the 21st. century. He
had only two hits both of which were recorded early in
his career but continued to record excellent blues and
rhythm and blues recordings throughout the 1950's and
beyond. As a result of this he became a distinguished
elder statesmen of American music until his death in 2007.
As mentioned above he had only two real hits one being
"T-99 Blues" for which he received his nick name as well
as "Meet Me With Your Black Dress On" a tune that has been
recorded by countless artists since he first recorded the
original. Both these hits were written by him as were most
of the tunes that will played on these two shows.
Jimmy Nelson was a disciple of Big Joe Turner and some attempt
will be made to compare the two men's styles so as to show
these similarities.
The play list is as follows":
1. Lucille-Big Joe Turner 1941
2. Second Hand Fool-Jimmy "T-99" Nelson 1953
3. Unlock The Lock-Jimmy "T-99" Nelson 1961
4. Play Me A 12 Bar Blues-Jimmy "T-99" Nelson 1995
5. I Sat And Cried-Jimmy "T-99" Nelson 1961
6. She's My baby-Jimmy "T-99" Nelson 1960
7. Kansas City Blues-Big Joe Turner ?
8. Rain Drop Blues-Jimmy "T 99" Nelson 1952
9. Baby Chile-Jimmy Nelson 1948
10. Fine Little Honey Dripper-Jimmy "T-99" Nelson 1952
11. T-99 Blues-Jimmy Nelson 1951
12. Sweetest Little Girl In The World-Jimmy "T-99" Nelson 1952
13. T-99 Blues-Tiny Bradshaw 1951
14. Bad Habit Blues-Jimmy "T-99" Nelson 1952
15. Big Eyed, Brown Eyed Girl Of Mine-Jimmy "T-99" Nelson 1952
16. Mean Poor Girl-Jimmy "T-99" Nelson 1954
17. Cry Hard Luck-Jimmy "T-99" Nelson 1954
18. Big Mouth-Jimmy "T-99" Nelson 1953
19. Last Time Around( aka) Last Turn Around-Jimmy "T-99" Nelson 1953

MATT THE CAT AND THE JUKE IN THE BACK SHOW ON ROCK-IT RADIO SHOW #4790 - SPOTLIGHT ON YOUNG JESSE
The West Coast is often ignored as a post World War II
Rhythm & Blues hot spot, but some mighty fine R&B artists,
groups and labels called LA home. This week, "Juke In The Back"
spotlights Obediah "Young" Jessie, one such unsung hero of
Los Angeles' R&B scene during the 1950s. At age 16, Obie Jessie
cut his first record with the Hollywood Blue Jays, which also
included schoolmates Richard Berry and Cornell Gunter.
The song, "I Had A Love" was written by Young Jessie and
featured Gunter on lead. Soon, the group was renamed The Flairs
and were recording for the Bihari Brothers' Flair Records.
Jessie went solo in '54 and began working with Maxwell Davis'
great band. In '55, he wrote and cut his more enduring song,
"Mary Lou," which unfortunately wasn't a hit for Young Jessie,
but became a huge hit for Ronnie Hawkins in '59. His Modern Records
output was top-notch '50s R&B and Young Jessie was working with
the best in the business. He was managed by Buck Ram, who also
managed The Platters and The Penguins and he was recording with
songwriters/producers Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller, however,
Young Jessie never enjoyed a national hit record. Matt The Cat
spins the records that should-have-been hits by an artist that
should be legendary. Dig Young Jessie on this week's
"Juke In The Back."
1. Swanee River Boogie - Albert Ammons - Mercury 1947
2. Long Tall Girl - The Carnations - Lescay 1961
3. You Ain't Movin Me - Linda Hayes w/ Earl Warren Orch and Chorus - Antler 1959
4. I Had A Love - The Hollywood Blue Jays - Recorded In Hollywood 1952
5. Down At Hayden's - The Hunters - Flair 1953
6. Lonesome Desert - Young Jessie - Modern 1954
7. I Smell A Rat - Young Jessie - Modern 1954
8. Mary Lou - Young Jessie - Modern 1955
9. Don't Think I Will - Young Jessie - Modern 1955
10. Nothing Seems Right - Young Jessie - Modern 1955
11. Do You Love Me - Young Jessie - Modern 1955
12. Hit, Git and Split - Young Jessie - Modern 1956

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