At the time, in old England, you didn't hear any of this. Mainstream radio wouldn't go near it. Even by the end of the 1950s, with London American and a few years of Elvis, you needed the enthusiasm of a fan ordering records in the record store to get a smell of it, so the net is everything you always wanted to hear, and dreamt about, but never could.
Thanks for everything you do.

The best R&B collections of all time. Back in the '50s we had to find the local black radio station to hear this great music at all. That in itself was a most enlightening and wonderful experience. I'll never forget listening to "Daddio on the Patio" every weekend. Thanks so much.

Thanks so much! Only one I didn't have. Good series.
Thanks for taking the time to leave comments. Happy to hear everyone is enjoying this series. I am also thankful that we don't have the annoying "captcha" here. I always seem to mess that up, and it sometimes stops me from leaving comments cause it's frustrating trying to figure it out!
We will be featuring R&B Years 1946 and R&B years 1942-1945 within the next week to complete this series.
Thank you VERY much for this series.
Don't forget 1954 as well. Hopefully I didn't miss that one because I don't see it.
I don't see 1954 either. Great series. Thank you so much Gyro1966 and RYP.
Hi Cliff - you need patience!
Thanks a lot! But CD one 1s 1953, the rest is 1954...:-)
Gyro1966,
Patience I have. I just thought you might have missed that year or maybe didn't have it. Looking forward to the complete series. Take your time.
And thanks again.
Thanks Gyro1966!!!
Frans - I will check on this when I'm done at work later.
Wow, Gyro, you have been SO busy putting all this together! I tell ya, it's like Christmas has come early. Wish I could leave your favorite cookies and a little of your favorite "cheer" as thanks, and even a big MUAH! Thanks sooooo much!
Fantastic, as always! Thanks.
- d.
Thank you very much!
A priceless series, love 'em.

i'm come back, here to stay...
thank you gyro, thank you ryp!
This has been a great series to listen to. Really appreciate this and all you do. I check twightzone everyday. Long may you reign. :^)
Excelente!! Great Series and I'm happy to have it!!
Frans is correct...only one of these four CDs is from 1953...the other three are repeats of the 1954 discs...
Yes, Anonymous 22 Oct hit it on the head. I was lucky and had a crystal set so could hear Radio Luxembourg in 1959 onwards but you could get most of them in the local record shop up North!
I to am anonymous.
Awereet Then and Frans - Are you trying to make me crazy? I just tried the CD's you mention and there is no truth to what you are saying. They are in fact 1953 CD's, not 1954. Don't you think everyone else here would have mentioned this problem if this was the case? C'mon, this is all time consuming stuff here, please don't add any more time by making extra work here - and driving everyone nuts.
Strange...I download 'em yesterday and three of four are 1954. Then today they are all 1953. Well, thanks for fixin' 'em. 8/
Thanks so very much!!! appreciatedc mightily
Thanks very much (as always!).
FYI - CD 1 & 2 are coming up as bad links.

These collections have immeasurably added to my R&B collection, and words cannot express my gratitude, Gyro!
Amazing! Thank you so much for this wonderful series!
Thank you so much for these amazing collections. I seriously can't get enough!
I would love if these amazing collections would be re-upped! They're all lost to Zippyshare now. Thank you so much!
I'd love to repost "THE R&B YEARS 1953" but unfortunately I can't find it in my archives right now. As soon as I find it I'll repost it on the main page!
