John Lee Hooker — I’m John Lee Hooker

This is a beautiful Spanish 180 gram reissue of a 1959 Vee Jay release. The tracks are from 1955-59, and, as with the other John Lee Hooker discs, they sound like they could have been recorded yesterday. I just bought this in 2018 (it’s a 2016 release), so there’s not much else to say about it. If you have even the slightest interest in the blues and you aren’t familiar with John Lee Hooker, I’d strongly encourage you to check him out.

“Let that boy boogie woogie. It’s in him, and it’s got to come out.”
