Portrait Of A Man - Screamin' Jay Hawkins

Screaming Jay Hawkins - I Put a Spell on You (Audio)

Well… every now and then we slip in some forgotten link between the fifties and sixties…

Oh Jalacy, very very special huh…
What a life this character had… Too bad there’s no one to tell it properly…

At his death, the “official” flash from the children… “We have tracked down 37 so far,” the family’s lawyer said if I remember correctly… He claimed that there should have been around sixty… probably even more…

Well, just based on what is known, a reasonably eventful life…

And musically, he contributed much more than is acknowledged. Of course, the trashy attitude didn’t help…
