Hosted by Matt the Cat.

Matt the Cat plays the American soul that came before rock 'n' roll on the Juke In The Back. 40 years ago this week, we lost the "King Of Rock n' Roll". Much has been written about Elvis' enormous impact and popularity over the years, but its almost impossible to overstate the cultural shift that took place as he rose to fame in 1956. This week's Juke In The Back focuses solely on the rhythm & blues that motivated Elvis' early career. Produced for Pacifica on KZGM Radio.
