Rest in Peace and thank you Roger. Roger’s drumming is the secret in the Sauce of the Swampers and for all of these killer grooves in these songs we all love so much by these beloved Artists . Respect, Land Of a 1000 Dances, I’ll Take You There…
God Bless Roger and ALL the Muscle Shoals folks who were a part of this unlikely, wonderous happening that will always resonate as maybe the greatest story in music history.
Journey through yesteryear, great music and melodies created by a bunch if hardworking Americans taking a gamble and winning!!!! I love this country 😍,don't wreck it anymore, freedom, freedom freedom!!!!
Crazy, right? Roger Hawkins will never be forgotten. His imprint on music and what it truly means to be part of a rhythm section is as important to me as the artists who he recorded with.
I LOVE drummers who play ahead of the beat(seemingly).It's like they're playing drums with AUTHORITY!💪.Rare.Other drummers that do that is Neil Peart,Stuart Copeland.Also Mark Hammond(My favorite studio drummer ever!).
This needs to be ten minutes long to do justice to his unique playing!!!
Very true!!

Love Roger Hawkins, and all the Muscle Shoals guys. Great great stuff.
RIP Roger. King of the Swampers’ greasy pocket. Cant get Percy’s thumbnail out of my mind.

Totally agree, I would buy an Lp based on who the session players were
The groove is insane! And no, it would’t be the same without the swampers. Totally insane musicians.
R.I.P.

Listen to his drumming on John Hammond's Shake For Me, and Boz Scaggs' Loan Me A Dime!
He was absolutely Amazing!!
🙏❤
How could you omit his amazing work on the Candi Staton hit, Here I am Again
I take there
