FAVORITE THINGS





















































John Lee Hooker
1917 - 2001
It Serves You Right to Suffer
"milk, cream, alcohol"

He developed a 'talking blues' style that was his trademark. Though similar to the early Delta blues, his music was metrically free. John Lee Hooker could be said to embody his own unique genre of the blues, often incorporating the boogie-woogie piano style and a driving rhythm into his masterful and idiosyncratic blues guitar and singing.
