...sings the lead vocal on "Holy Man," a Dennis Wilson solo track left unfinished at the time of the Beach Boys legend's tragic death.
Being a Southern California surfer dude himself, I guess Hawkins kind of related to Dennis. In any case, a beautiful job (originally released on the 2008 Sony reissue of Wilson's 1977 masterpiece, Pacific Ocean Blue).
As of this writing, we don't know the circumstances or causes of Hawkins' passing; all we know is that now both of them are gone. And as I usually say in these circumstances, this death shit is really beginning to piss me off.

Was just listening to some Foo Fighters as I am not that familiar with them. The band, with Hawkins on vocal, turns out a powerful piece of power pop on the tune "Cold Day in the Sun." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0hu1IMp0-yY
This is band with a broad scope. My own failure for tuning them (and most of the 90s-00s) out. RIP.
Still reeling from Taylor's death. What a waste. 10 substances...He watched him shout out to his wife and family a week prior.
He broad smile every time he sat behind his kit that blond hair flying every where
