============================================== MATT THE CAT AND THE JUKE IN THE BACK SHOW ON ROCK-IT RADIO SHOW #4838 - SPOTLIGHT ON JUKEBOX 1954 Pt. 2
1954: Jukebox Rhythm Review, Pt. 2
1954 was a pivotal year for American Music. The lines between Rhythm & Blues and Pop were getting blurred as more and more R&B records crossed over into the Pop Chart, causing a brand new youth market to open up. American teens of all colors were diggin that jump blues sound that had been a staple on Black Radio for years. This would lead to racial integration and eventually, the Civil Rights Movement. There is no doubt that music played an important role in the early days of Civil Rights and those roots can be traced back to the Black Music of 1954. In fact, this was the year that a young, white kid from Memphis named Elvis began recording at 706 Union Avenue. It was also a year of unlikely musical heroes as 43 year old Joe Turner, who had been making records since 1938, topped the R&B Chart twice, helping to propel Rock n Roll Music to the forefront. Vocal groups like the Chords, The Charms, The Five Keys and The Drifters were forging a new sub-genre that would come to be called Doo Wop. This week in part 2, Matt The Cat focuses on the biggest jukebox hits of the second half of 1954. So grab a handful of nickels, cause you re gonna need em to keep the Juke In The Back jumping as we highlight the momentous year of 1954.
1. Swanee River Boogie - Albert Ammons - Mercury 1947 2. Honey Love - The Drifters Feat. Clyde McPhatter - Atlantic 1954 3. Sh-Boom - The Chords - Cat 1954 4.

============================================== AL COOL DADDY SMITH WITH A R&B TRIBUTE TO JACK MCVEA ON ROCK-IT RADIO SHOW #4840
This show is the first of a two part series on the recordings of R&B pioneer Jack McVea. Probably best known for his hit record of Open the Door Richard in 1957, he was much more than just a one hit wonder. He had an outstanding career both as a Jazz and an R&B sax player. As well he was the leader of his own band that recorded separately from the many artists that he and or his band backed. Such artists as T-Bone Walker, Wynonie Harris, Lionel Hampton, The Savoys,The Laurels etc. all benefited from his expertise. As well Jack McVea participated in arguably the first two Rock and Roll records playing as he did on Lionel Hampton song Flying Home in 1942 and Blues Parts One and Two recorded at Jazz At The Philharmonic (JATP) in 1944. These shows will feature both his work as a band leader as well as his efforts as a participant in the music of others. It is long overdue that this under rated but supremely important contributor to Rock and Roll was featured on Rock-it Radio. The wait is over.
The play list is as follows:
1. Bar Tender Boogie Jack McVea and His All Stars 1945 2. Wino-Jack McVea and His All Stars 1945 3. House Party Boogie-Jack McVea and His All Stars 1946 4. Frisco Blues-Jack McVea and His All Stars 1945 5. Flying Home- Lionel Hampton and His Orchestra 1942 6. Yaka Boo-Jack McVea and His Orchestra 1955 7. Tarrant Blues-Jack McVea and His All Stars 1945 8. We're Together Again-Jack McVea and His All Stars 1945 9. Tequila Hop-Jack McVea and His Orchestra 1954 10. No Worry Blues - T-Bone Walker 1946 11. Don't Worry Baby-T-Bone Walker 1946 12. Crows Being Evicted-Jack McVea and His Door Openers 1947 13. Open The Door Richard-Jack McVea and His All Stars 1946/47 14. Chop Chop Boom-Jack McVea and His Orchestra with The savoys 1955 15. The Key's In The Mail Box-Jack McVea and His Door Openers 1947 16. Yacka Hoom Boom-Jack McVea and His Orchestra with The Savoys 1955 17. Inflation Blues-Jack McVea and His Door Openers 1947 18. Fine Fine Baby-Jack McVea and His Orchestra with The Laurels 1955 19.

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 'Tune in Radio' App. on Android and PC and iphones. Running
a search of 'Rock-it Radio' 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 - run a search on 'rockabilly' - there you will easily find Rock-it Radio listed. Our Tune in Radio App. webpage is also at: http://tunein.com/station/?stationId=41878

============================================ 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.
============================================ 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!
