John Lee Hooker - Sings Blues

The embodiment of the blues! A primal architect of the genre’s structure, Hooker’s hypnotic guitar work and commanding vocals influenced everyone who followed, and these tracks — originally recorded in the late ‘40s and early ‘50s as “Texas Slim” and first presented here in 1960 by King Records — find him at the peak of his playing and singing powers. Pressed at RTI on 180-gram audiophile vinyl, you’ll hear every moan, gasp and string blast on this definitive edition of John Lee Hooker Sings Blues.
