The Friday Night Cat Fight is the only show the puts 2 versions of the same song by 2 different groups up against each other and then asks for YOUR VOTE!\u00a0 A common theme on this show is the Americans vs. The Brits.\u00a0 This occurs so frequently, because in most cases the British covers of American tunes are so damn good, that they deserve mention.\u00a0 Also, sometimes the British group scored the bigger hit, while the original American cover is left behind, forgotten.\u00a0 That is not the case this week, as The Drifters scored a major top 20 hit on both the American pop and R&B charts.\u00a0 The Searchers 1963 cover hit #1 in the UK, but failed to chart Stateside when it was released here in 1964.\u00a0 So please listen to this week’s Cat Fight Show and then make your choice and VOTE for the one you truly DIG THE MOST!<\/span><\/p>\n

Also on this week’s program, we find out what Mel Torme and a guitar virtuoso have in common, we make some R&B phone calls with Big Walter and Floyd Dixon AND we talk to former Oriole Diz Russell about Sonny Til, the man.<\/span><\/p>\n

So listen, vote and DIG!<\/span><\/p>\n
