This week, the "Juke In The Back" spotlights The Drifters' first chapter with the great high tenor of Clyde McPhatter out front. The group was created by Atlantic Records in order to showcase McPhatter's beautiful and powerful voice after his 2 year stint with Billy Ward & The Dominos ended. McPhatter never got the money or the recognition that he deserved from Billy Ward and after learning of his departure from the group, Atlantic co-founder Ahmet Ertegun was eager to sign him to Atlantic. It was a smart decision as McPhatter's new group, The Drifters, scored a #1 R&B record right off the bat with "Money Honey" in 1953. They would score another #1 a year later with "Honey Love" as well as five other charting hits before McPhatter left the group in 1955 for a solo career. The Drifters would continue to have huge chart success as would McPhatter, but this week, Matt The Cat focuses on The Drifters' genesis. 1. Swanee River Boogie - Albert Ammons - Mercury 1947 2.

A lot of artists, especially in the 50's and 60's recorded for small independent record labels who in a majority of cases gave no information on their labels except for the artists. I'm not even going to try to guess where these labels were located as quite often, a group or artist from say Indiana would record in Alabama and so on.

DOMESTIC ORDERS FOR ROCK-IT RADIO SAVE 25% BY USING YOUR COUPON!! Every order Rock-it Radio receives for a vintage Radio Broadcast or a Rock-it Radio Show or Flashdrive.  We include a Catalog along with a coupon that allows you to get 4 CD's for the price of 3.  25% savings.  It isn't used much though and we are wondering why.  It does have to be by mail order and their is a order sheet in the back of the catalog.  We pass the savings along as we are charged less from Ebay and Paypal when we get our orders in through the Catalog.  As they don't take out their portions they charge.    So if you like to purchase more from Rock-it Radio think about doing the old fashioned way afterall we are a old fashiioned station and it might take 3 or 4 days more but you will be saving money through the coupon. Our apologies we can't do this for overseas orders but we are already taking a huge hit on postage that we also have to absorb mailing overseas. =============================================

AMATEUR RADIO STATION KI7PMQ BEING BUILT AT ROCK-IT RADIO STUDIOS After retiring from public service 4 years ago we have decided to finish something I started back in 1973 at the age of 13.  And that was to be a Ham Radio Operator.  The world of radio took me in different directions but now being semi retired last week surprised myself, I took both the technician and general radio exams, and to my surprise passed both. On Friday September 1st we are having an antenna raising party here - and should be soon on the ham bands shortly after.  I don't know how many of our listeners are ham radio operators - some have already come forward from my facebook page but would love to chat with many of you. contact me at: rockitradio@netzero.net all the best & 73, Bennie at the Rock-it -- KI7PMQ =============================================

COME REMEMBER WOLFMAN JACK !!! Rock-it Radio has a very special way to remember Wolfman Jack.  Arguably the most iconic of American DJ's.  Come check out the Rock-it Radio Wolfman Page at: http://www.rockitradio.net/wolfman.html

REMEMBERING OFFSHORE PIRATE RADIO IN THE UK In the mid 1960s  it was difficult for the youth to actually listen to Rock and Roll in the UK.  The BBC actually ran only a few hours a weekend to provide the young Brits with this outlet.  At night during the week they ventured to even tune into Radio Luxembourg to get there fill, that broadcast rock and pop around the clock.  To fill this void some venture capitalists decided to bring in commercial radio aboard refitted radio ships.  And anchor themselves just  off into International waters off the English coast.  Radio Caroline (named after Caroline Kennedy the U.S. President's daughter at the time) and  Radio London being the most famous.  Rock-it Radio  has a website dedicated to their ventures  and also have actual radio broadcasts available of these offshore pirates.  We invite you to check them out our webpage at: http://www.rockitradio.net/pirate.html

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

Rockabilly bands looking for airplay If you or know someone that would like airplay on Rock-it Radio we invite you to submit your press kits to Rock-it Radio.  Our website for further information is: http://www.rockitradio.net/airplay.html ============================================ Come tune into  the World on your computer! 1000s of stations around the world now broadcast online.  We have a link to some of the internet top directories to help you find these stations. http://www.rockitradio.net/internetradio.html ============================================ 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. ============================================ 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! http://www.rockitradio.net/upnorth.html  ============================================  Well that is just about it for this newsletter and playlists of our latest shows. We hope that you enjoy them. We will do our best to keep these shows on for at least 14 days and hopefully 21 days. All the best always, Bennie Dingo Rock-it Radio e mail:  rockitradio@netzero.net website: http://www.rockitradio.net facebook:  http://www.facebook.com/bennie.dingo
