I remember videos of Ronnie used to appear on one of the Buffalo stations after the Three Stooges shorts. At that time around 1957-59, the Hawk was heavily influenced by the music of Bo Diddley. Like many of the early rockers, he was from the deep South (Arkansas).
You only pass through this life once, you don't come back for an encore.
