This book will appeal to fans of rock history, music biographies, and readers interested in the colourful characters who shaped 20th-century popular culture.

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 a total stranger to the truth.
