  • Resumen

  • Join us on a journey through the life and music of the legendary Screamin' Jay Hawkins, a trailblazing figure whose impact on rock 'n' roll and the blues reverberates to this day. Known for his wild stage presence, trademark growl, and flamboyant persona, Hawkins defied conventions and created a musical style uniquely his own. Born Jalacy Hawkins in the turbulent 1920s, his career took an unexpected turn with the recording of "I Put a Spell on You" in 1956, a song that would become his signature piece and a rock classic. But behind the theatrics and voodoo-inspired performances lay a complex artist grappling with personal demons and a restless creativity. We delve into Hawkins' early influences, his impact on the music industry, and the enduring mystery surrounding his life. From his electrifying live shows to his lesser-known collaborations and the lasting influence on artists like Alice Cooper and Tom Waits, this episode paints a vivid portrait of a man who defied categorization and left an indelible mark on the world of music. Tune in as we uncover the stories, the myths, and the magic of Screamin' Jay Hawkins.
