Product Description In the annals of rock ‘n’ roll there have been a lot of strange characters, but there probably hasn’t been anyone as bizarre as Screamin’ Jay Hawkins, and this is his story. Known mostly for a single record, I Put A Spell On You, and emerging from a coffin to perform on stage, Screamin’ Jay was a whirlwind performer, lusty singer, prolific songwriter and a man who was total stranger to the truth. Review As someone who has spent a long time in the music industry, I can tell you that rock ‘n’ rollers don’t come much wilder than Screamin’ Jay Hawkins. He’s a good subject for Steve Bergsman, an experienced music writer who really knows his way around the arcane and forgotten of the R&B genre. This is an exciting read. — Beverly Lee of the Shirelles (Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow, Soldier Boy, Dedicated to the One I Love, etc.) About the Author Steve Bergsman, has contributed to more than 100 magazines, newspapers and wire services for more than twenty-five years, including: New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Barron’s, Toronto’s HomeFront, Fortune, Black Enterprise, Oldies, Chief Executive, The Australian, Phoenix Magazine and the news services: Reuters, Inman, Copley and Creator’s Syndicate.
