It tells us we are diving into the deep waters of esoterica when the best-known song is the Royal Teens' "Short Shorts." Looking over this list, I see that a few clusters of similarly themed songs. Along with "Short Shorts," we have the Delroys' "Bermuda Shorts" and "Tight Skirt And Sweaters" by the Versatones. Then there's the "Job" trilogy, "Get A Job" by the Silhhouettes, "I Found A Job" by the Heartbeats and the Miracles' "Got A Job." And let's not forget three versions of the Collegians' classic, "Zoom Zoom Zoom." Most of these tunes were favorites of the denizens of Times Square Records, the little shop in the subway.

ON ROCK-IT #6497 The "Juke In The Back" proudly celebrates the 100th birthday of Dave Bartholomew, one of the fathers of not only Rhythm & Blues, but also Rock n' Roll. Bartholomew grew up with the music of New Orleans, learning to play trumpet from Peter Davis, the same cat who taught Louis Armstrong to play. He fortunately also learned how to read and write music at an early age, which would help him out later as a producer. In the studio, he could arrange the tunes on the spot as he worked with some of New Orleans' finest musicians. Bartholomew was hand-picked by Lew Chud, the owner of Imperial Records out of Los Angeles, to be his local New Orleans talent scout and producer. He discovered and recorded Fats Domino, The Hawks, The Spiders, Bobby Mitchell & The Toppers, Shirley & Lee, Lloyd Price (for Specialty) and so many more. Though Dave Bartholomew is best remembered for who he recorded and discovered, Matt The Cat takes this week's program to showcase Bartholomew's own recordings for DeLuxe, Decca, King and Imperial Records. He unfortunately only had one nationally charting record during his entire career, but he was the New Orleans R&B sound of the 1950s. His band played on almost every important record to come out of the Crescent City during that time period. It's fitting that a man who did so much has lived so long and we're honored to dedicate an entire program to the GREAT Dave Bartholomew. 1.

| ================================================ ANNUAL EAST VS. WEST BATTLE WILL EXPERIENCE A DELAY THIS YEAR. Rock-it Radio listeners know that it's a summertime tradition for Bill Green and Lane Quigley to do battle on the annual East/West Showdown. The guys are hoping to face off with the 21st Annual Battle later this year, but it won't be during the summer. As many of you know, our Program Director and long-time DJ Lane Quigley sustained significant smoke damage to his residence and Studio B during the 2018 California wildfires. After 8 months of dealing with insurance and contractors, the remediation of the home is nearing completion. Lane and his family will soon have their belongings back from storage and will be moving back home. However, the rebuild of Studio B is still months away. In the interim, Rockitradio will continue to upload repeats of classic Memory Lane Shows of the past. An unfortunate byproduct of this turmoil is that Lane and Bill have not been able to record or complete preparations for the 2019 Showdown - but they are anticipating being able to get together in the Retro Studio to record this year's program sometime this fall. |
| ================================================ ROCK-IT RADIO FINANCES BECOME DIRE .... Well gang for those long time listeners will remember last December in the latest difficult financial situation of Rock-it Radio. We have found ourselves in the same situation I am afraid. In April, May and June we have taken losses after a pretty healthy first quarter of 2019. We don't want to lose Rock-it and we have many shows we are going to air in the next couple of days to catch up. There is no advertising on Rock-it Radio we are completely financed by our own online stores. We kindly ask if you enjoy oldies rock and roll to please support us. Thank you and God Bless, S/ Bennie Dingo Rock-it Radio |

| HEAR ROCK-IT RADIO ON ROKU !!! Last month we stopped our service with DirecTV and hooked up Roku the streaming TV application for our TV set. While exploring what we have I noticed that it offers .... The "Tune in" Radio channel on Roku. So, we added that channel ... it's free! And started searching for Radio stations to listen too on our TV set with Roku. You do have to have a Wi Fi Internet set up for Roku. But the first search we did was in the search box typed in "Rock-it Radio" though we are the original Rock-it some other stations did pop up also. But we immediately recognized our logo on the Tune in Radio service.... and we are now able to hear the latest show of Rock-it Radio on our TV set. We thought that was pretty cool!

OUR 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 |

============================================
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
