1997 release. "Astonishing supercharged unreleased landmark teenage recordings 1956-1964 from the one rock n' roll's mightiest original maulin' kings, Mr. Dale Hawkins! Norton presents for the first time ever the swampy, blues infested demo of rock n' roll icon-legend-anthem Susie Q (featuring 15 year old James Burton on lead guitar!) plus tons of early monsters which document the beginnings of the often imitated/never duplicated patented Hawkins sound! Package features unseen photos galore, massive interview packed bio reignites the fever for the Hawk himself!"

"A true legend in his own way, the Louisiana born and bred Dale Hawkins is mostly known to the world for his all-time rockabilly classic 'Suzie Q', as made famous by Creedence Clearwater Revival in their successfully revived, million-seller 1968 version. One of the very few white artists on the legendary Chess label, although often overlooked, Dale Hawkins's contributions are as valid as any of rock 'n' roll's founding fathers, and his 1958 Oh! Suzy-Q debut is one of the best hidden rockabilly treasures of the fifties."
