Review by Gauwain van Kooten Niekerk

Rockin with Ronnie is an album that showcases the talent of legendary rock and roll artist Ronnie Hawkins. Released in 1959, the album features a mix of blues, rockabilly, and country music that is sure to get any listener tapping their feet and singing along.

The album opens with the upbeat and catchy "Forty Days," a song that sets the tone for the rest of the album. Hawkins' powerful vocals and the driving rhythm of the band make it impossible to sit still while listening to this track.

Other standout tracks on the album include "Mary Lou," which features some impressive guitar work, and "Odessa," a bluesy number that showcases Hawkins' range as a vocalist.

Throughout the album, Hawkins is backed by a talented group of musicians who help to bring his songs to life. The tight harmonies and skillful instrumentation make it clear why Hawkins has remained a beloved figure in the world of rock and roll for so many years.
