The "Juke In The Back" focuses on the " soul that came before rock n' roll," the records that inspired Elvis, Buddy Holly, The Beatles, The Rolling Stones and countless others.
This week, "Juke In The Back" focuses on a tiny Chicago R&B record label with a big sound; Parrot Records. The label was started by Chicago DJ Al Benson in late 1952 and it closed its doors in 1956. During its period of operation, Parrot recorded some smokin' R&B with Willie Mabon, Mabel Scott and J.B. Lenoir and smooth vocal group sounds from The Flamingos, the 5 Thrills and the Orchids.
After you've enjoyed The Variety Vault with Paul Merrell, Wednesday afternoon from 2 to 4 PM, don't touch that dial, device, PC, Mac, smart speaker or tablet and join me for The Early Years, where and when you'll hear the best music from the first quarter century of Rock with nods to other decades and genres.
All the songs this week except one will be from a 6-year window (1958-64), as I continue the multipart theme that I began last week that I'm calling Canadiana. This is part 2. Every song will involve Canadian artists.
This week on Deep Dive we enjoy the talents of US singer Little Richard. We meet long tall sally, hear about tutti fruity, and do some slippin' and slidin'
Tune in at 4 PM Monday Eastern, which is Tuesday morning in Eastern Australia. Or at 6 AM Wednesday Eastern, which is Wednesday evening in Eastern Australia.
Tuning in is easy! Simply tell that SmartSpeaker of yours to play Mushroom FM and you will be there faster than you can say rip it up.
Hello! Sara Hillis here to let you know about this week's episode of Come by the Hills, the Folk and Celtic music show on Mushroom FM! This week, I'll be paying a reflective tribute in song to the United States of America on the occasion of its 250th birthday. From patriotic anthems to musical ries of protest, it promises to be an interesting show. We'll hear from Joni Mitchell, Odetta, Woody Guthrie, Simon and Garfunkel and Phil Oches, as well as some of our usual mix of Folk and Celtic music. It'll be better than the Great American State Fair, that's for sure!

This week, "Juke In The Back" waves the banner high in celebration of America's 250th birthday with one of America's great contributions to the world. No, it's not a representative democracy, motion pictures, space flight or a free economy, but its cuisine. America's food in song with some good ol' red, white and Rhythm & Blues.
