Synopsis
Album Description
Digitally remastered collection comprised of live performances from the 1966 TV show The Beat, the first syndicated black music television program in history. The Beat was the brainchild of William "Hoss" Allen, a former DJ, publisher, producer and record label owner. The syndicated television show featured 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. 24 tracks. Cherry Red. 2010.
