Screamin Jay Hawkins.

[Paul Dimaline]

Are there any Screamin' fans out there? I "need" one of his albums, the only one I have heard is Black Music For White People but I cant seem to find a copy on vinyl. So, I was wondering if anyone has any other recomendations.

Ta,
Paul.

I only have the one: I Put A Spell A You (Demon). This includes selections from his 1950's ouput including the self titled classic. It's out of print and crazy as hell.

Same here: am a fan, even though I have only heard Put a spelll on you.

Any compilation focusing on the 50s and 60s.

He's brilliant in this btw, one of my favourite films of the 80s.

Cheers all, I'll try and get hold of a compilation of his early stuff.

There is a cd available called Alligator Wine which is a "best of..." compilation.

Probably the only man who could get away with a track called Constipation Blues.

Trouble is I'm stuck in the age of Vinyl, hence its a bit difficult getting hold of anything.

On Black Music for White People there is a track all about feminine hygene, (or rather the lack of), most definatly one not to play when Mums round for tea.
