Essential Works 1956-1962 [Import]

Double vinyl LP pressing. John Lee Hooker is still probably the most striking blues figure of the 20th century. The power and originality in the voice of John Lee Hooker, combined with his distinctive guitar, earned him a huge reputation in the Forties and Fifties. Hooker started his career with the VeeJay label in 1955, and those recordings sealed his reputation as an essential blues voice. In the Sixties and Seventies, Hooker became a household blues name, with bestselling records regularly listed in the charts on both sides of the Atlantic. The 27 VeeJay titles that are included on this album are at the heart of the John Lee Hooker style, and every one of them is a blue diamond.
