Alrite this is dedicated the late legend that is John Lee Hooker.
He is the only artist who (to me) his voice just did not change throughout his career (which extended right into his early 80s). Some of his favourite albums he ever made were when he was in his 70s, which to me is incredible. My favourite albums are 'The Healer' (1989), 'Jealous' (1986), 'Boom Boom' (1992 Remake), 'Mr Lucky' (1991). One album I am dying to get is 'Chill Out' (1995) another album he did with Carlos Santana as I love the song 'Chill Out' itself. I have the recent double disc best of & love all the old classics which he did in his early days but I just happen to prefer his later works, which I seem to find with a lot of artists I listen to; Neil Young & Miles Davis; to name a few. Anyway heres a few videos that to me sum up the best of John Lee Hooker in my eyes: Live version. A very interesting live version of Santana playing it live himself in '87 Sorry if I put to many 'The Healer' videos on, it stands alone as the only song I continously listen to at least once a day without fail. Simply amazing. I hate The Rolling Stones but this is amazing to see, he single handedly plays Eric Clapton, Keith Richards & Ronnie Wood off the stage in one go. Also there is some fantastic dancing from the man himself. Live take from the 70s. From Mr. Lucky (1991)
