Suzie Q: This piece of blues-drenched rock 'n' roll with its cowbell-infused rhythm was one of the most influential and original records of its era. It took rockabilly pioneer Dale Hawkins and his bandmates three months to perfect the song on the stages of North Louisiana's notorious Bossier City strip before they paid a local radio station $25 to let them record it in the station's studio during early-morning downtime. Hawkins told Mojo journalist Michael Hurtt in 2007: "We just had to have something different." He added: "Radio Station KWKH was the only place in town that had a good mono tape machine, so we cut it there with Bob Sullivan, an engineer who was from our part of the country and understood. We only had an hour because we had to do it in between the time that they would switch radio towers."
The condition of the cover is VG+ no splits, slight corner wear, back cover has some age discoloration and in a very light pencil at top says 3.98 (wow! can I have 100 at that price). The condition of the disc is a nice VG (+)! plays VG++ or better!!!
