[@Deano_77]

[@olliewalters548]

Good music? It's GREAT music! 👍

[@harrisonmccartney4878]

If you can play rhythms like John Lee Hooker and solo like B.B. King, you'd be the greatest blues player of all time. The swagger and attitude in Hooker's playing is unmatched, and the soul of B.B. King's playing is always beautiful.

Bb King sucks

[@izik30]

Educating my daughter about the origins and I had to show her this before The Doors version. Teach your children well.

[@bigblob1623]

Check out Jr. Kimbrough's version, I love those hill country blues.

[@dullsearake]

you're a good father!

[@Sylvio-ro2wf]

He who feels it, knows it..That's the blues. ❤

[@davidlindley171]

It isn't just good music, it's where everything from the Gospel to Country to Rock was born, out of the consummate suffering of African Slavery in the South... You don't simply listen to the Blues, you FEEL the Blues!

[@sunnyndaisyflowerpower5497]

There is just NOBODY like JLH now …I’m grateful we have this for everyone to vibe on…🤘🏻

[@ruthdixon7807]

hooker learned the song from big joe williams and recorded it in 1949. some 22 years later it appeared on the doors' album, LA woman, where I first heard it, but I'm glad I decided to trace it's origins.

[@virginiwoolf]

I don't know what is better. his singing or the way he plays the guitar...❤

[@trailbossx2]

Johnny Lee,,,,lookee heah, son,,,,,set right on down, heah,,,,finna show yall, the REAL mans blues,,,,,😎

[@jasoneidem5792]

these men lived in the hardest times and lived the music they translated in their music . our weak ass generations will never feel the hard work and unfiltered hardships it takes to put that real emotion into a song the is not bias or racial... it's blisters on a hand and a heart and a soul that creates this music.. we should all be glad to be blessed with these musicians. the music is as graphic as life gets and deeper then we know. God bless them for music and pain they put into it

[@zteaxon7787]

I'm not sure you understand the "hardness" of times if you think the 70s are harder than today. In ways today is harder. Maybe people aren't drafted for Vietnam but they are targeted every day and things are more unaffordable than in the 70s. They didn't deal with millions flooding accross the border competing for resources.

[@zteaxon7787]

And speak for yourself instead of insulting entire generations of people your retarded ass doesn't know fuck all about. Your TV, media doesn't portray the character of anything or anyone honestly.

[@shiva1742]

WLAC radio back in the 50’s played stuff like this all night long.

[@willierabb9369]

Love this

[@matthewteeple4470]

Ain't nothing like the blues. Smooth and mellow. Ain't nothing like it....

[@JokersWild70]

Absolutely filled with soul and emotion. There's not much better.

[@janinesnyder8250]

Imagine these guys were producing music now. With the internet as it is, I wonder if they’d still achieve “legend” or if it was all in the geography.

[@teastrainer3604]

The blues came from a fairly small area.

[@alexha737]

The king of blues

[@newyorknight]

Somewhere between NY and the South. There's the blues on the broken roads of life.

[@dex-o8s]

Probably one of the best concerts ever recorded was John Lee Hooker with the coast to coast blues band with sugar blue in 1985... just incredible what a band i.. it was a blues and Bud show from wxrt on a Monday night from 1985 I recorded it off the radio and then had some CDs made... I believe me and xrt are the only people that have it.....

[@mikec81]

[@xavsmash]

Groovy ❤❤❤❤❤

[@andrewclemons6207]

Simple but amazing ,, a man, a guitar and a metronome yet it slays !

[@guillll]

Nothing simple about this, as anyone who tried to play it on guitar knows ... Also I can guarantee there's no metronome involved in this recording !

[@LuxuriousInterior]

no metronome, more than likely just a mic'd up crate he's stomping on

[@dontgoout1434]

What metronome

[@dontgoout1434]

Blues is the only true music. Anything else is just funny shit, yea other genre could be cool too. But Blues is life. Theres nothing more to say and I dont discuss it.
