A rare live performance of the great bluesman in 1974 on
DVD, along with two CDs of many of his greatest studio recordings, including
‘Boom Boom’, ‘Crawlin’ Kingsnake’, ‘Dimples’, ‘Boogie Chillun’ and many more.
John Lee Hooker was perhaps the most recognizable and
revered of the great post war bluesmen. His recording and performance career
spanned six decades, and in that time he made some of the genre’s most iconic
recordings and collected a legion of acolytes including Van Morrison, Keith
Richards, Eric Clapton, and Bonnie Raitt. The performance on the DVD was
videotaped by a local cable television broadcaster on 6 July 1974 in front of
6,000 people at a festival in Massachusetts, and captures Hooker in fine form.
