He was 82 and died from colon cancer in Chicago. Matt The Cat and the "Juke In The Back" pay our respects to this true innovator as well as Fortune Records, the storied label that he recorded for. Fortune was a Detroit original, started in late 1946, it paved the way for future greatness. We'll dig on some of their early releases, before jumping into their biggest star, Andre Williams. Originally from Alabama, Williams packed each single with grit, soul and a touch of weirdness that makes nearly all of his releases remain fresh-sounding today. Williams scored a national top 10 R&B record in 1956-57 with "Bacon Fat." It was so big, that Fortune Records licensed it to Epic Records for national distribution. A portion of this week's program is also dedicated to Nolan Strong & The Diablos, one of the smoothest and soulful of the '50s doo wop vocal groups. Even though The Diablos never had a national hit, they are remembered today for Nolan Strong's beautiful tenor and their original rendition of "The Wind" from 1954. So get ready to move and groove as the "Juke In The Back" jumps with some of Andre Williams' and Fortune Records' greatest 78 RPM Records. 1. Swanee River Boogie - Albert Ammons - Mercury 1947 2. Nobles' Shuffle - Jimmy Milner & His Blue Ribbon Band - Fortune 1949 3. Leaving Blues - Big Maceo - Fortune 1950 4. Doctor Baby - The Five Dollars - Fortune 1955 5.

At the end of the year the kudo points are counted and the one DJ that gets the most receives the DJ of the year award here at Rock-it Radio. They get one point for every like or compliment we receive, and 5 points for every shows of there's that is sold.

| 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 |

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