The Legends of the Rocking Dutchman - episode 176

Legends Mix

A mixed bag again and today that has a tribute to a boxer, and an ex-boxer who started an Ink Spots soundalike vocal group. I'll teach you, how not to get your ex wife rich of your work, and tell you about the first written use of the phrase Rock and Roll in a musical context.

O yeah - and in beween so much great music that I had to cut out on my outtro. Bad timing!
