Black Rock n' Roll (1955-1964)

<< Mr. Ghost Goes To Town
An hour's worth of hot R&B tunes, mostly recorded between 1955 and 1964- some of the most exciting years for rhythm and blues. Music that stimulated teens and horrified white parents nationwide.
I also address a controversy regarding a song I played a couple weeks ago.
Special thanks to Christen Manville, Shannan Hunt and Eddie Nicolau.
