Hello everyone!
The show tonight reaches historical proportions Therefore I feel it’s important for this historical radio station,77WABC ,that has been a major springboard for the birth and baby beginnings of Rock& Roll and Pop music, a form of music Born only in the United States.
So , join me this Saturday night and with my guest MIKE STOLLER, who along with his co – writer JERRY LEIBER, making up the legendary team of LEIBER & STOLLER! Yes, they are the true Godfathers of Rock and Roll! Every song we will play Saturday night on 77 WABC will be the songs our guest MIKE STOLLER wrote with JERRY LEIBER , and they are AMAZING! From “(You Ain’t Nothin’ But A) Hound Dog” to “Yakety Yak” to
“Charlie Brown” to “Spanish Harlem “,” to “Stand By Me” to “I Who Have Nothing” to “On Broadway”, and, “Jail House Rock” for Elvis!!!
JERRY LEIBER and MIKE STOLLER are described as the architects ,the Godfathers of Rock and Roll , shaping the music of Rhythm and Blues, with Blues / Jazz/ Country/ fusing them together to what was ultimately called “Rock and Roll”!
They are the chefs of this great American musical stew, by writing these historical songs which we will have the honor of playing on my show this Saturday Night, we will not only play them ,but we will have the honor of talking with MIKE STOLLER himself, who is willing to take us on his iconic, musical journey with amazing stories of how he cooked up such an amazing history of the making of this musical cuisine for 7 decades.
The world still can’t get enough of the songs written by these two genius of a song-writing team, LEIBER & STOLLER!
