Ronnie Hawkins: Red Hot Rockin' with Ronnie Hawkins (LP & CD, 10inch, 45rpm)

1-LP 10" vinyl with 12-page folder, bonus CD. 12 tracks (LP), 32 tracks (CD). Total playing time approx. 28 min. (LP), approx. 79 min. (CD)

With this 25cm LP, Bear Family Records® pays tribute to the legacy of one of the last great rockers: Ronnie Hawkins, the singer and pianist who died on May 29, 2022 in his adopted country of Canada.
His career began in Arkansas in the mid-1950s, but it wasn't until a few years later in Canada that greater success set in.
In 1963, his exquisite backing band, The Hawks, left him to make it big in the US as The Band.
This fine little 25cm vinyl LP delivers twelve of his best R&R tunes; the bonus CD has additional cover versions and originals.
Detailed liner notes by our Chicago music expert Bill Dahl in the enclosed folder, which also includes a variety of rare photos from Dave Booth's collection.

Ronnie Hawkins may well have been the last great rock and roller to surface during the 1950s. His comparative lack of chart success certainly wasn’t his fault—he was just a victim of bad timing as squeaky-clean teen idols replaced the first generation rockers that popularized the music a few short years before he emerged. By the time Roulette Records boss Morris Levy signed Rompin’ Ronnie in the spring of 1959, there was only time for him to post two sizable hits with his versions of Chuck Berry’s Forty Days and Young Jessie’s Mary Lou.

They’re both aboard this collection, along with ten more scorchers by the Arkansas wildman. Slashing guitar solos aplenty by Jimmy Ray Paulman and Fred Carter, Jr. are part of the fun; towheaded stick twirler Levon Helm stokes a ferocious beat on every track, including The Hawk’s remakes of Red Hot and Honey! Don’t. Levy thought he’d found the next Elvis when he discovered Ronnie Hawkins, and he just might have been right if he’d turned up a few years earlier!

The bonus CD, compiled exclusively for this release, features cover versions and originals. Music expert Bill Dahl has written the in-depth liner notes, and Canadian collector, archivist, music historian and decades-long radio deejay Dave Booth has thankfully provided us with a load of wonderful photos.

Ronnie Hawkins has always done well for me!

Ronnie Hawkins has always done well for me. Here we get a ten-track set with 12 tracks from 1958-59. These are also available on the attached CD, which has another twenty tracks with artists who recorded the songs in original or covers. Hawkins probably needs no further introduction, however, many of the tracks with the other artists are new to me. As most people probably know, Chuck Berry has the original of "Forty Days", then titled "Thirty Days" from 1955. Bo Diddley did the original "Bo Diddley" the year before Hawkins recorded his version and Carl Perkins wrote "Honey Don't", as well as Billy Emerson being the first with "Red Hot". However, I didn't know that Young Jessie" recorded "Mary Lou" back in 1955 or that Chuck Willis was first with "What'cha Gonna Do". In most cases, I think Hawkins gives the original recordings a run for their money, but when it comes to "Hey! Bo Diddley" Hawkins outshines the original (not to mention the back of the single "Who Do You Love"). I think most of the tracks are of good quality, and that includes Swedish Jerry Williams. Besides Hawkins, my favorites are Chuck Berry, Bob Luman, Billy Riley, Max Falcon, Tyrone Schmidling and Carl Perkins. There are only a few recordings from the mid-60s that I find a bit thin. In addition to the CD, a 21x21 cm booklet with rare Hawkins photos is included.

‘Red Hot Rockin'’ by Ronnie Hawkins and The Hawks is an unmissable release!

Together with the 10” vinyl, this release contains a bonus CD with no less than 32 songs. These include the tracks from the 10' vinyl as well as cover versions of these songs. Plus, you get a formidable 11-page colorful booklet with liner notes by Bill Dahl. The beautiful, often never seen photos were provided by Canadian music historian and DJ Dave Booth. And if all this is not enough, a postcard with the photo of the cover is attached.
