Good ol' Ronnie Hawkins an’ everybody

Suddenly the wold is hearing about Ronnie Hawkins. And all because John Lennon made him an international figure by staying at Ronnie’s Canadian home for ten days. Never underestimate the power of the Beatle. Wewere talking in his living room, sitting beside his Christmas tree decorated with white doves and green-iced cookies shaped like the peace symbol.
