Torrent description

The black blues legends playing with the white up-and-comers. I guess Sonny Boy Williamson II started it all about six years ago with his Live With the Yardbirds album. Successive years have seen a record-rack full of similar efforts ... from Muddy Waters, Lowell Fulsom, Furry Lewis and Otis Spann .. all resulting in quasi-successful albums that at times effectively blended the old urban, Texas/Chicago post-war Fifties sounds with the post-wah-wah generation. The best of them allowed the old bluesmen a lot of up-front playing and singing space (the Sonny Boy and the Spann) while the rest suffered from a distasteful updating attempt - Muddy Waters and Fulsom got drowned out and psychedelized upon.

This album falls distinctly into the former class John Lee Hooker, a 54-year-old blues legend in his own right, is sympathetically accompanied by the likes of Jesse Davis, Carl Radle, Steve Miller, Gino Scaggs and Mark Naftalin and the end product is a double-album set of unadulterated Hooker portraits in blues.

Hooker is at present in residence in Oakland, California, playing an endless variety of gigs both in the local Berkeley coffeehouses and Oakland ghetto-clubs as well as appearing with regularity at Pepperland up in Marin County. I'm sure he would agree that times are better for him these days, certainly a far cry from his Detroit-based early years, and this album, along with his also current Canned Heat effort, can do nothing but enhance him all the more with blues fans everywhere. He has gone through all the changes, from Jim Crow to the Blues Revival, recorded over the years for more than a dozen companies and remains the Crawhn' King Snake, the Boom Boom master.

This ts the BGO remaster.
