Auf diesem ersten, für Vee-Jay aufgenommenen Album aus dem Jahr 1959 sind einige Songs, die John Lee Hooker auch schon vormals für andere Label aufgenommen hat.

Eine der großen Bluessammlungen, das uneingeschränkt in die Sammlung eines jeden Bluesliebhabers gehört.

Vintage blues and then some from revered bluesman. Picture the wooden shack stove and pull up a rocking chair for this splendid reissue of 1959’s disc, augmented with a different take on ‘I’m So Worried Baby’ and a chilled-out ‘Unfriendly Woman.’ Remarkably prescient blues sounds live here in the shape of Hooker classics like ‘Dimples’, ‘Crawlin’ King Snake’ and the standard ‘Boogie Chillun.’ It’s a quiet storm of controlled chaos from the man who put the grits in the Grammies' UNCUT

This, the first John Lee Hooker album issued by Vee Jay in 1959, features some of Hooker's most famous songs, on which he is accompanied by a fine body of musicians which include Eddie Taylor and Jimmy Reed.

Over the decades, John Lee Hooker has become a living legend and is nowadays recognised as the most famous blues artist of his time.

The impressive tracklist includes the perennial favourites ‘Dimples’ and ‘Boogie Chillun’, plus four well-chosen bonus tracks, including ‘Unfriendly Woman’ and ‘I’m So Worried Baby’.

A landmark album in blues history, ‘I’m John Lee Hooker’ has now been specially packaged in an eye-catching digipak format, its booklet including the original sleevenotes, a discography and a new introduction written by leading blues authority, Les Fancourt. (charly. co. uk)
