What a fantastic old. Record came from my 61 member by now on a 45. N.P.R. Stereo wonderful stuff I love that track so much I never thought it was long enough so if you've got the original record you might notice that will be longer as I just added another verse on the end just to extend it out a bit the great Eddie Cochran in the current edition of now dig this magazine July dition they got a feature always more popular than the next reproductions of what the music press said about Eddie and the white and records that were released by him in the wake of his tragic death in 960 and looking at reviews of the singles and all sorts of stuff and pictures of what was coming up and Eddie Cochran has never been for go on a brand new disc. Exclamation mark and I thought to Regis the little bit of this is a review of weekend doesn't say which music paper it's from but it this is what he said this is the 3rd only Cochran single released here since his death just over a year ago so this was from 61 weekend is a bright hand-clapping fast rocker in which Eddie really lets go energetically bouncing through the bright ditty and they gave it 4 stars with a right to and story bounce through that did he not the great Any Cochran Jeff Walker rock on Sunday night on the B.B.C. Last night in London there was a concert with Joe Brown Van Morrison Billy Bragg Dave Peacock Peter Doniger and loads of other people celebrating that it was exactly 65 years ago yesterday that the song Rock Island Line was recorded by crisp our bodies band featuring Lonnie Donegan and I caught up with Chris he did a concert at the cost of Hall in 2002 it was just after Lonnie died I was making a tribute for radio to about 4 to Lonnie I should say and I was he Chris was a very very key part of the guy wanted to speak to because in the early days when he played banjo in his traditional jazz band but they used to have a bit during their intervals and sort of midway through their gigs they called a break down session where a lot of what is guitar on Crystal go into a not right slap bass and they do country rock up country blues not Country Rock Country Blues and Lead Belly songs and all that sort of stuff wasn't really called skiffle then but it became skiffle because they were then got a record deal with Decca and they want to record an album called New Orleans Joyce which had the song Rock Island Line on it which indeed did change the world became huge in American influence people over there as well including the great Johnny Cash so on the anniversary we came to this concert last night I thought well just rerun just a little bit and a couple minutes of the great Chris Barber recorded in 2002 cars and whole talking about that monumental recording 65 years ago I had a bit about playing about one night awaken Lonnie at his own one became enjoy my band as well so he was playing tonight to be very good to see playing with my band at that time we knew that he you know he was always scenes times. On the guitar much in the banjo we didn't know so much about the guitar by the banjo and the band and used to sing about midnight special and monitor the numbers that the 1st numbers we were thought about really were the ones on the late twenty's many by Blind Blake because they were comforted by jazz musicians or the time they were doing a bit like special the sort of songs but with Tara net sort of washboard maybe bass of some sort you know kind of rough and ready to put together a band but not a guitar in the skiffle sense but we like that music and we did a cup and I was like that here we had based times and banjo town and trombone thinking color came out from New Orleans and joined up with us and that was significant because I can call it was a great blues enthusiastic so we then had Lonnie and Ken me on the basis of messing around just playing a few numbers and we started playing our numbers doing the band's performance 1st or might be in the interval to get into that because it was so keen that I would take we played it would have played all not intervals Nor given the chance and we began calling it before clearly because I had the record which is 99 Paramount 78 Paramount being a company which in Chicago which featured largely black music and they called it hometown skiffle. Then it gradually got within a short space of time became a skiffle group and then when we made the 1st album in June of 54 I mean just like the band over from Concordia. We said we'd like a couple of you for numbers and we got better brought in by more sports and that was about what will play you say and we invite you to come it was ordering around what to do socially and going through on the record as he does and so she played washboard really well and that was rock on and John Henry I mean we know with the LP saying God knows how many copies with rock on a deck you wouldn't put the singer out there were just one put out I mean they did eventually cause that to you went on they lost out because of because Lonnie and all of us would sign for those pressed and a counterpart so they could get those 1st 2 plays which would go in the charts at about the top 10 as a piece could be on deck if I buy the culture I bit into care. About the rock. And you all. The New Orleans. You know. You got money but you got certain things on board OK you don't have to be human just. Coming down and which. Was. Your life stop. The polls. Dad and I. Go. Ahead. And. 6 go down and. A couple of hugely important recordings made in Britain a crisp I'm going to go. Because it was it was cold out and it was only going. Right down session from the album New Orleans Joyce recorded 65 years got this very weekend rock on the line and it was a great John Henry I remember. Somebody. I had said a great quote which is so true skiffle was British will you listen to it when he had that role of energy in that same sound and Chris was a pretty mean slot. And just great to hear that a great. Such an important according it really did change the world 10000 people picked up excels in the U.K. Because of money on that recording and course never let it be forgotten this was in the stream important part of that Jeff talk about her most on you not the B.B.C.

Right well we see our gadgets gather from the the songs you just listed you are an amateur the one you've asked for which we won't say what it is yet because it's a sad giant of the genre of classic American rhythm and blues definitely one of my speciality so is to play the harmonica that detectives write who would have been your harmonica here as. Well so this was one star Brian Jones Yeah Sonny Boy Williamson people at. This 1st rock N roll record of yours. It was one of those are great that libel pine pie international R. And B.
