John Lee Hooker is one of the leading figures in 20th century blues and was a major influence on many other bands and musicians, including the Rolling Stones and George Thorogood, just to name a few.
If you thought George Thorogood tracks like One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer were Thorogood originals you’d be wrong. They’re covers of John Lee Hooker.
This a 1976 solo concert performance by John Lee Hooker at Hunter College in New York, released on Fat Possum Records, an excellent indie label based in Oxford, Mississippi.
