CHUCK BERRY
Demos & Rarities

He’s always been one of the building blocks of rock n’ roll; writing his own material and inspiring generations with his groundbreaking guitar work. This week, Matt The Cat digs into Chuck Berry’s creative process as we present some of Chuck’s early demos for the songs that would make him famous. We’ll hear early versions of “Rock And Roll Music” and “Sweet Little Sixteen” as well as the only known 50s record where Chuck played session guitar and didn’t sing. Hear another side of Chuck Berry, this week on Harlem.

HARLEM
In the 1950s JACKIE WILSON had it all. His looks, his moves and his incredible voice shook the nation and helped to usher in the dawn of rock n’ roll. Where do you think Elvis got all those pelvic gyrations? He got ’em from JACKIE, man. Hear Jackie Wilson’s earth shaking beginnings as lead vocalist for the Dominoes through to his 1957 breakthrough and beyond. Look up “soul” in your dictionaries and sure enough you’ll find a picture of Jackie Wilson (and Bobby Bennett), because he was there when it all began and so was HARLEM on the 50s on 5.
