She did most of her recording with Owen Bradley who had a licensing deal with Decca Records of New York City. Patsy also recorded several tracks at the famous Pythian Temple in New York City Patsy Cline was born Virginia Patterson Hensley on the 8th September 1932 in the town of Winchester, Virginia. She enjoyed a nine year spell as a country singer until her tragic death on 3rd March 1963 when she and two others were stricken down in a plane crash just outside of Camden, Tennessee. Many country artists have cited Patsy as the "Queen of Country", but that title has and always will stay with Kitty Wells, although Patsy is definitely a strong contender. 01. Intro - Medley 02.

Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller, the greatest producers in all of 50s rock'n'roll and 60s soul, once told Billya they learned their craft at the feet of Maxwell Davis. Davis was a good tenor saxophonist and an even better arranger and producer. He was a good song doctor, too, who often took amateur attempts at songwriting and fixed their structure to put them into saleable form. He worked for LA's top R&B labels, Aladdin, Specialty and Modern, among others. His horn riffs are instantly recognizable. He adapted his style to give each label a signature sound. For Specialty, he used three saxes, for Modern, he added a trumpet, while on Aladdin he usually used only his own tenor sax most of the time. Many of the hits he arranged became classics, still heard today: "Chicken Shack Boogie," "Black Night," "The Wallflower (Roll With Me Henry), " "Please Send Me Someone To Love," "Stranded In The Jungle," "Eddie My Love," "Why Don't You Write Me" and "Goodnight My Love." Later sides, like "Sweet Sixteen" and all of B.B. King's hits, and Lowell Fulson's "Tramp," which is considered by today's Hip Hop stars to be the first funk record. HOUR ONE 1.

| ================================================ A BIG THANK YOU TO ALL THE ROCK-IT LISTENER'S THAT HAVE DONATED. Due to poor, ok terrible sales in October and November as we reported 2 weeks ago in a special bulletin, Rock-it Radio had run out of operating capital. And unable to pay it's bills. Well thanks to such a immediate response we are not out of the woods but we are happy to report we can continue operation at least until the end of December. I received a couple of e mails from listeners that were kind enough to say they want to donate but don't want to purchase anything. In their response we are starting a Go Fund Me link towards the top of our Website at http://www.rockitradio.net . Below is the link to the Go Fund Me account for Rock-it Radio. https://www.gofundme.com/help-keep-rockit-radio-playing-oldies-online&rcid=r01-1543186066-247bca7676b34445&pc=ot_co_campmgmt_w |
| ============================================
ROCK-IT RADIO LISTENER'S
VINTAGE BROADCASTS ON FLASHDRIVE It's hard to believe but we realize that perhaps our declining sales is due to Compact Discs are a aging medium. And Flashdrives And digital is where it's at. If you would prefer to have Rock-it Radio shows and vintage radio shows that we offer for sale on Flashdrive in mp3 format rather then on CD we can provide that service here at Rock-it Radio. Here it is how it works: 1. E mail me at rockitradio@netzero.net and let me know what shows you would like to have on Flashdrive. Let's make it a minimum of 3 broadcasts. Either any Rock-it Radio show .... or Vintage Radio Show from the 50s through 70s that we offer at: http://www.rockitradio.net/store.html 2. The Cost: Flashdrive will cost $5.00 and each show that you wish to have will cost $5.00 - nearly 50% CHEAPER then on CD. 3. I will send you back a invoice within a couple of days, It will be sent via paypal and it is not obligatory. If you change your mind just don't pay. But it is easy to pay with any major credit card. 4. Please allow up to 7 days for me to fill the order. Once payment is sent. In case I get swamped with this offer. Probably sooner. I have to redigitalize all sold shows into MP3 and that takes a little bit of time. All orders will have $3.00 postage a slight increase but that is due to it is shipped as a package and not envelope since it will be over a 1/4" thick. For example you order: 3 of our Alan Freed Radio shows. And a Real Don Steele show. A total of 4 shows - That would normally be a cost of $40.00 on CD. All together on one flashdrive so the invoice would look like - Flashdrive $5.00 - Four Shows on Flashdrive @ $5.00 each - $20.00 - shipping $3.00 Total: $28.00 Of course if you order more shows on the flashdrive you would continue saving as you are paying the $5.00 per show rather then $9.50. And of course we will be adding the monthly giveaway as well. So for a invoice again just e mail me your wants on your flashdrive for shows on mp3 at: rockitradio@netzero.net Also, check out this offer again at: http://www.rockitradio.net/flashdrivemp3.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 |

WORTH SHARING DURING THE HOLIDAYS!!!! UNMENTIONED SAVINGS SECRETS FOR SENIORS AND FOR SOME THAT JUST MEANS FOLKS OVER 50 YEARS OLD BUT YOU HAVE TO ASK FOR THEM. GREAT LIST. FOR OUR ROCK-IT RADIO LISTENERS! Keep this list and send a copy to your senior friends and relatives. As I was waiting in line behind an older gentleman at Wendy's recently, I heard him ask for his senior discount. The girl at the register apologized and charged him less. When I asked the man what the discount was, he told me that seniors over age 55 get 10% off everything on the menu, every day. Being of 'that' age myself, I figured I might as well ask for the discount too. This incident prompted me to do some research, and I came across a list of restaurants, supermarkets, department stores, travel deals and other types of offers giving various discounts with different age requirements. I was actually surprised to see how many there are and howsome of them start at the young age of 50. This list may not only be useful for you, but for your friends and family too.

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!
============================================
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
