Let The Good Times Roll
November 2 & November 15, 200x; November 30—December 15, 200x
In 26 thrilling hour-long programs,
Let the Good Times Roll tells the stories behind the songs that have kept America singing and dancing for decades. Hosted by Chicago soul singer Jerry “The Iceman” Butler, the series profiles the lives, times, and creative output of artists who rocked the world, from Wilson Pickett to The O’Jays, Chuck Berry to Little Eva.
Butler covers it all. He takes listeners to visit the tiny Alabama town of Muscle Shoals, for example, where an unusual collaboration between white session musicians and producers with African American singers created some of the best loved soul music. He invites listeners to explore the soul scenes of Philly and Memphis, and to revisit TV shows like Dick Clark’s American Bandstand and The Ed Sullivan Show, where black R&B performers like The Supremes and Sam Cooke were first seen by millions of Americans. He ends in the present as Eric Clapton, Bonnie Raitt, and others share their favorite blues songs and performers, and explain how their own music is firmly rooted in R&B.
