Lonnie Donegan Showcase (also known as Showcase) is the debut album by British musician Lonnie Donegan, credited to Lonnie Donegan with His Skiffle Group. Released by Pye Nixa in December 1956, the album followed a string of successful singles – including "Rock Island Line" – released by Donegan between 1955 and 1956 that established him as a solo artist, separate from the Chris Barber Jazz Band, and popularised his distinctive style of skiffle music, a genre that mixes folk, jazz and blues, in the United Kingdom.
