Juke in the Back

Juke in the Back


    Matt The Cat presents the soul that
    came before rock n’ roll: 1950s rhythm and blues. Each week, this
    underrated and rollicking music plays on that old Rockola Jukebox in the
    back.


    If you wanted to hear rhythm &
    blues during the 1950s, you couldn’t get it from the juke box in the
    front. No, no! In order to hear that glorious, down and dirty R&B,
    you had to go to the low-lit, spit-shined “Juke In The Back.” These
    songs are the building blocks of rock n’ roll. These are the records
    that inspired Elvis and single-handedly led to the rock n’ roll
    explosion of the mid-1950s. Big Joe Turner, Fats Domino, Little Richard,
    Ruth Brown, Ray Charles, Wynonie Harris, LaVern Baker, Roy Brown, Joe
    Liggins, Professor Longhair and many more take center stage on The Juke
    In The Back. Matt The Cat hosted a similar program on XM Satellite Radio
    called “Harlem” and now he brings this great music and information back
    to radio.
