This 28-track set combines
Ronnie Hawkins' first two LPs for Roulette Records, 1958’s
Ronnie Hawkins and 1960’s
Mr. Dynamo, and adds four bonus tracks from another Roulette LP released in 1960,
The Folk Ballads of Ronnie Hawkins, and it all adds up to a nice introduction to the best tendencies of this passionate and endearing singer.
