Though his recording career lasted only four or five years at most his recorded legacy is worthwhile and many of the tunes to be played on this show could easily have rivalled 'Susie Darlin' especially the song "All Because of You" in terms of chart success had they received appropriate exposure. His life after music was a great success and this is mentioned during the show. My thanks to Lane Quigley for his assistance in the preparation of this show. The play list is as follows: 1. Well Oh Well Oh-Robin Luke 1960 2. Poor Me-Robin Luke 1959 3. Everlovin'-Robin Luke 1960 4. All Because Of You-Robin Luke 1960 5. Living's Loving You-Robin Luke 1958 6. Susie Darlin' -Robin Luke 1958 7. Hay Ride-Robin Luke 1959 8. Chicka Chicka Honey-Robin Luke 1958 9. My Girl-Robin Luke 1958 10. Strollin' Blues-Robin Luke 1958 11. Five Minutes More-Robin Luke 1958 12. Make Me A Dreamer-Robin Luke 1959 13. All Because of You-Robin Luke 1960 (Reprised as both Robin and Randy Wood owner of Dot Records consider it his best song.) 14. Poor Little Rich Boy-Robin Luke 1961 15. Bad Boy-Robin Luke 1959 16.

RIP BILL BOWEN LONG TIME SUPPORTER OF ROCK-IT RADIO We are sad to announce the passing of a great supporter of this station. Mr. Bill Bowen. Bill was from Ft. Myers Florida, and was instrumental in many of our programs esp. with Al Cool Daddy Smith in Studio C in Canada. Bill would share his vast collection of music along with ideas for future shows here at Rock-it Radio that he would think listeners would enjoy. His son notified Al Smith of his passing of a sudden heart attack a couple of week's ago. RIP Bill you will be missed greatly along with your ideas and sharing of this great music. |

Rock-it Radio Program Webpage Reminder
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.
