Screamin' Jay Hawkins and his 57 kids:
"'I feel that I may be one of the many sons of Mr. Screamin' because I enjoying climbing in and out of coffins, as well as shaking around skulls on poles. Thank you.'

'I gots plently of rhythm and blues, and my boss told me so.'

'When I was twelve years old, I was sitting at at truck stop in suburban New Jersey with my mother. I asked her what flavor ice cream she wanted, and she said, 'You are the child of the famed rhythm-and-blues artist Screamin' Jay Hawkins.' From that moment on, I knew I was marked for greatness.'

These are a just few of the hundreds upon hundreds of entries sent to Jayskids, a Web site deisgned to locate the children of blues singer Screamin' Jay Hawkins. Late in life, Screamin Jay confessed to his biographer - a woman named Maral Nigolian - that he believed that he had fathered over 57 children, and shortly after his death in 1999 she decided to find them all these children and have a party. This is that story."
