Popis - HOSS ALLEN'S 1966 RHYTHM AND:
The !!!! BEAT was the first syndicated black music television program in history and was the brain child of William ?Hoss? Allen. Allen was a disc jockey on WLAC radio in Nashville, a 50,000 watt clear channel station that could be heard from Alasca to Jamaica on a cleaer night. By the mid sixties Allen owned several record labels and publishing companies, a production company and managed and booked recording artists. In 1966 he set his sights on a syndicated television show and a deal was struck for 26 shows, with a fabulous house band, (The Beat Boys), fronted by the legendary Johnny Jones with Clarence ?Gatemouth? Brown, backing a who?s who of the rhythm and blues world at the time. Blues was considered the devil?s music by many at the time and many stations dropped the show after the first series and eventually it faded into myth and legend. Bill Allen passed away in 1997 and many of the artists on this collection are no longer with us but thankfully the Hossman had the vision to record this fabulous chapter in American musical history. This audio collection is comprised of live performances from the show to play like a rhythm & blues revue of the day.
