MATT THE CAT & THE JUKE IN THE BACK IS BACK WITH PART I TRIBUTE TO THE MOONGLOWS IN SHOW #4932
The Moonglows, Pt. 2
Much has been written about the great R&B vocal groups of
the 1950s. Many of the classic groups were either great
musicians and vocalists and never had the recognition or
record sales to back it up or these groups were thrown
together, they couldn't sing very well and scored one, solid
hit that still spins in the eternal jukebox of public
consciousness. The Moonglows were one of the few groups to
come out of the post World War II, pre-Elvis era, who were
extremely talented and had the sales figures and notoriety to
back it up. Originally called The Crazy Sounds, Harvey Fuqua
and Bobby Lester led The Moonglows to a #1 R&B smash in 1954
with "Sincerely" on Chess, but that was after a somewhat bumpy
start on Alan Freed's Champagne Records and Chicago's Chance
Records. This week, Matt The Cat presents part 2 of a 2 part
feature on the fantastic Moonglows, covering their career from
1956 through their breakup in 1958 and the singles that followed
through the end of 1961. An interview with the late Reese Palmer
reveals how Harvey Fuqua came to hire his group, The Marquees as
the 'new' Moonglows. This week's 'Juke In The Back' shares the
rest of the story on this influential and important 1950s
vocal group.
1. Swanee River Boogie - Albert Ammons Mercury 1947
2. We Go Together - The Moonglows Chess 1956
3. Chickie Um Bah - The Moonglows
4. See Saw - The Moonglows Chess 1956
5. When I'm With You - The Moonglows Chess 1956
6. Over and Over Again (slow version) - The Moonglows Chess 1956
7. Over and Over Again (fast version) - The Moonglows Chess 1956
8. Please Send Me Someone To Love - The Moonglows Chess 1957
9. Mr. Engineer (Bring Her Back To Me) - The Moonglows Chess 1957
10. The Beating Of My Heart - The Moonglows Chess 1957
11. Here I Am - The Moonglows Chess 1957
12. Sweeter Than Words - The Moonglows Chess 1958
13. *GREAT 78* I Knew From The Start - The Moonglows Chess 1956
14. Ten Commandments Of Love - Harvey & The Moonglows Chess 1958
15. Mean Old Blues - Harvey & The Moonglows Chess 1958

STRANGE NEWS FROM YOUTUBE IN THE NEWS
Heard a bit of disturbing news in the news this morning.
All the musical videos that are to be filed into a new
service by Youtube that will be a separate subscription
service.
This is upsetting as it will probably mean the end of our
vintage video website if that comes true.
Their are thousands and thousands of music videos and
songs that have been posted by Youtube users and have shared
in various newsgroups - many rare releases and can share the
music and afraid this will cut the use of these rarities
greatly. Well we will just hope that all the music on youtube
becomes a subscription service.

RIP BROADCASTING LEGEND CASEY KASEM
As you are all aware the Broadcast Legend Casey Kasem
passed away. From ongoing Alzheimers and complicated with
Parkinsons disease that left him speechless. He was recently
in the news over the custody battle of him between his wife
and his daughters from his first marriage.
Casey Kasem began radio broadcasting on the Armed Forces
Radio Network in Korea.
Casey was also the voice of Shaggy of the Scooby Doo Cartoon
of the 60's and early 70s. And did other voice work in
Hollywood. Until the 70s when he began one of the most popular
music shows of all time -- American Top 40. At which he
became known in almost every household here in the U.S.
And in the 80's had the TV show of the similar theme where
he would feature the American Top 10 songs every week on TV.
Remember
Casey Kasem early on in his career. We have a uncut and unedited show
remastered onto CD from KRLA Radio in Los Angeles from 1965! after his
return from Armed Forces Radio Network.

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.
============================================
