Funk, Blues, Rock - Ike was a great musician. I grew up on him. From Ike's site:
Ike's contribution of music is quite extensive. Not only has Ike collaborated with many well known artists in the R & B and Blues industry, Ike also contributed his unique styling in Rock & Roll and Hip Hop as well.
Many do not know that Ike's musical influence and prominence predates the duo that brought his musical talent to the limelight. Starting with Sun records and writing the "First Rock & Roll" song "Rocket 88" Ike had established his musical abilities way back to when Elvis was just a kid.
Ike's music has garnered him a place in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame and well as a nomination for a Grammy Award to winning W.C. Handy Awards, "Walk of Fame Star" as well as a" Beal Street Music Note "
