Dale Hawkins - Oh! Suzy - Q
This will be the first of what I hope will be many posts featuring complete albums or at least songs for you all to listen to. This is a great album, and a pretty rare and valuable album. I've actually had 2 of these at various times but sold one for a pretty penny and kept one for myself. Alot of you are probably familiar with the title song as either done by CCR or even by The Rolling Stones. This one is the original and it kicks. The rest of the album is more of the same. Great early rock and roll guitar that should make his fellow chess label mates Chuck Berry and Bo Diddley proud. Apparently the Chess brothers were considering putting this on their Argo subsidiery which is apparent by the back cover which has an Argo label number. Either way they changed their minds and although this didn't get a big pressing, it is amazing. So, sit back and enjoy this rare LP and an artist who probably deserved more.
