Synopsis

Album Description
One of Lightin' Hopkins' greatest & rarest releases is now out on CD. Mojo Hand (originally released on the Fire label late in 1960) is particularly interesting because it presents Hopkins in a context that ranges from blues to classic R&B. The album's title track, originally released as a single, has become one of the artist's signature tunes. While 'Have You Ever Loved A Woman' features Hopkins on piano, 'Glory Be' is characterized by Hopkins' trademark guitar playing. 'Sometimes She Will' is also characterized by Hopkins' instantly recognizable guitar & pronounced vocals, while 'Awful Dreams' is notable for its apocalyptic text. Features 15 tracks including 6 bonus tracks, 'Shake That Thing', 'Walk A Long Time', 'Last Night', 'Just Pickin'', 'Bring Me My Shotgun' & 'Mojo Hand' (Live At 1965 Newport Folk Festival). Packaged in a miniature LP gatefold sleeve. Universal. 2003.
