CD Reviews

Excellent Early John Lee Hooker

Mr. Get Real | Long Beach, CA USA | 05/19/2008

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Mostly just John Lee Hooker, his electric guitar and his left foot... This is the early, early solo Hooker before he was consistently using a backing band. The sound quality is very good on this collection considering the sources are often rare 78s, etc. I have several box sets of this early period and this JSP box with 100 tracks on it is certainly as good as any of the others. You get an excellent selection of classic and essential early Hooker in very good sound quality. Get this box set and you will not regret it! If you can also manage to acquire the now out of print "Alternative Boogie" box issued by Capital you will have just about all you really need for early Hooker material."
