I think that is Fred Carter. It looks like him, & there was a period around the time of the Mr. Dynamo album where both Fred and Jimmy Ray Paulman played guitar & there was no keyboard player. the only other two guitar Hawks lineup would have been very briefly around maybe 1960, with Fred and a very young Robbie & Stan Szelest would likely have been on keys.

Look at the Levon flash so much feel, LEVON an all around class act and a beauty.

That is Levon Helm. That's where The Band came into existance, as Ronnie Hawkins' Band. He had guys from the south in his band. They got homesick for the south, and left one by one. The Band took their places, one by one.
How lucky for us! The Band is one of the GREATEST.

Respond to this video... yea in his book "this wheel's on fire" Levon refers to crowds going crazy when Ronnie did the "camel walk". love Levon's trade mark drum stick twirls.

@donuntboy25 I'm pretty sure it is, as Levon was with him in the '50s. Hard to believe but Levon is still touring these days promoting his 'Dirt Farmer' album.
