Juke in the Back

Music
1940s & ’50s Rhythm & Blues
At the end of the Second World War, economics forced the big bands to trim their once great size and thus, the Jump Blues combo was born. Between 1946-1954, rhythm and blues laid the tracks for what was to become Rock n’ Roll. So how come, 70 years later, this vibrant and influential music is still so unknown to so many?
Matt The Cat is going to change that with the radio program, “Juke In
The Back.” These were the records that you couldn’t hear on the
jukebox in the front of the establishment. To hear all this great 1950s
rhythm & blues, you had to go to “Juke In The Back.”
