Born in Arkansas, he was an itinerant musician, working in Memphis and St. Louis, before doing his first recordings for Bluebird in 1937 in Chicago, and continued his rambling lifestyle during what was a fitful recording career over the next fifteen years. Having recorded initially for Bluebird with Sonny Boy Williamson I (the original \"Sonny Boy\") as Robert Lee McCoy and Ramblin' Bob, he recorded in 1940 for Decca under the name Peetie's Boy, and during the late '40s for Aristocrat and it's later guise as Chess under the name Robert Nighthawk, taking the name from the best-known title from his first sessions \"Prowlin' Nighthawk\". His final recordings during this era were in 1951 and '52 for the United and States labels. He was rediscovered during the '60s and enjoyed a brief revival before his death in 1967. This great-value 48-track 2-CD set comprises the main body of his significant recorded output under his own names, with noted performers like Speckled Red, Willie Dixon, Ernest Lane, Pinetop Smith and Ransom Knowling featured on his sessions, and is a showcase for the intense bottleneck style he developed as he made the transition from acoustic to electric guitar which charted the way for the likes of Elmore James and others, for whom he was a significant influence.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProwling Night Hawk\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLonesome World\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDon't Mistreat Your Woman\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSweet Pepper Mama\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eG-Man\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTough Luck\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMean Black Cat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI Have Spent My Bonus\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMamie Lee 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTake It Easy Baby 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrickyard 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMy Friends Have Forsaken Me 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eC.N.A 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShe's Got What It Takes 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBig Apple Blues 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOl' Mose 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEvery Day and Night 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNext Door Neighbour 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGood Gambling 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou're All I've Got to Live for 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFreight Train Blues 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGonna Keep It for My Daddy 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMama Don't Allow Me to Stay Out All Night Long 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFriars Point Blues 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNever Leave Me 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMy Sweet Lovin' Woman 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDown the Line 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHandsome Lover 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShe Knows How to Love a Man 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAnnie Lee Blues - the Nighthawks 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlack Angel Blues - the Nighthawks 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReturn Mail Blues 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSugar Papa 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSix Three O - the Nighthawks 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJackson Town Gal - the Nighthawks 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGood News 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrison Bound 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKansas City Blues 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCrying Won't Help You 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFeel So Bad 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTake It Easy Baby 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNighthawk Boogie 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Moon Is Rising 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaggie Campbell 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeventy Four 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBricks in My Pillow 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUs Boogie 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou Missed a Good Man\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Alliance - BT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46983497711837,"sku":"824046322526","price":20.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0551\/1056\/6043\/files\/3747685.jpg?v=1762925519","url":"https:\/\/shop.darksiderecords.com\/products\/robert-nighthawk-collection-1937-52","provider":"Darkside Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
