The Australian Rock’n’Roll Appreciation Society (ARRAS) was founded in 1974. We are not a dance club, but an association of people who have a passion for ’50s style music. We are a mixed bunch of enthusiasts, consisting mainly of record collectors, music promoters, DJs, musicians and rock’n’roll dancers. Our club members come from all over the globe and everyone who shares our passion is welcome to join us.

We publish a quarterly magazine called the “Big Beat of the ’50s" which pays tribute to all genres of roots music that were the forerunners to rock’n’roll. Our magazine also includes articles about present day artists who have their roots in the old sounds. Annual membership with ARRAS includes four issues of the “Big Beat of the ‘50s” magazine, posted to your address.

ARRAS also presents a weekly radio show called “Shake, Rattle and Roll” which is broadcast every Saturday night between 8 PM – 9.30 PM (AEST). “Shake, Rattle and Roll” is now available via live streaming over the internet: Radio 3CR Melbourne

Here's a new blues film based in the
50s that has just hit the U.S cinemas:

Also, if you haven't checked it out
already - Chuck Berry's new box set,
better than The Chess Box that was
released around 20 years ago.

Johnny B. Goode: His Complete '50s Chess Recordings

http://www.amazon.com/Johnny-B-Goode-Complete-Recordings/dp/B0012IWJAS

Here's hoping his complete recordings
of the 60s won't be too far away.

Hi
Sorry taken so long to get back to you, we have been v/busy.
Our main band "Chain REACTION" has been having a great time playing lots of RnR classics at corporate, council and private events/functions. We also organise /promote out own RnR dance Nights which are a buzz. The next one is on Saturday 17th May 2008 at the Claremont Football Club (7:45 - 12Midnight), if you are over this way please come along.
Our smaller band (3-piece) Shoot the Breeze is also keeping busy.
We hope things are going well for you and your society, keep up the great RnR.
Take care
