The "Juke In The Back" puts the ol' Rockola Jukebox front and center on this week's program as we present part 2 of a feature on the biggest jukebox jivers from 1956. It was the first full year of Rock n' Roll Music crossing over from its Rhythm & Blues roots into mainstream Pop Culture. This was the year that Elvis broke through and scored massive hits on the Pop, R&B and Country Charts. We'll dig on the future King's biggest record of the year as well as monster crossover hits by Bill Doggett and Little Willie John. Hosted by Matt the Cat.
