They don't make em like that any more. His version of Susie Q is amazing, very exciting and primal.

RIP Dale!

Dale Hawkins recorded one of my favorite albums on the Chess label.

Au revoir, Dale. :tears:

Great roots-rocker.
Roy Buchanan played with him for a brief time, actually started his professional career with him in '58
RIP
