JOHN LEE HOOKER "Gotta Boogie - The Modern Recordings 1948-55" 2CD
John Lee Hooker, a giant who has led the blues world for over half a century. This 2-CD set contains 30 modern records from his heyday, from 1949's "Hobo Blues" to 1954's "The Syndicator" owned by P-Vine!
Some of the albums were produced by Bernie Bessman, and most of them were produced by Joe Bihari, who is a modern musician. From solo performances to songs featuring Eddie Kirkland's guitar, to band sounds, you can enjoy the variety of works from his peak period. This is truly one and only John Lee, doing his own thing. I hope you will writhe around to your heart's content, along with the 3CD set of Ace.
