Product Details

Before The Band became The Band, they were The Hawks, and before they were The Hawks, they were backing Ronnie Hawkins through some of the sweatiest, most committed rock and roll being made in North America. Hawkins recruited Levon Helm, Robbie Robertson, and the rest from the Canadian circuit, forging the rhythm section and chemistry that would eventually reshape American music.

In the late '50s and early '60s, Ronnie Hawkins was one of the few rock & rollers committed to performing and recording unapologetic rockabilly while others were returning to their country roots or going the teen-idol route. This 18-song compilation focuses mostly on his initial burst of activity for Roulette in 1959 and 1960. [Note: This product is an authorized CD-R and is manufactured on demand].
