I had a smattering of John Lee Hooker compilations but this one shames all of them. This is like his biography done in a similar style to Eric Clapton's "Crossroads" box set. I like chronological compilations so you can hear the artist "develop". If you love raw blues and you don't have this put it on your Christmas list!!!
P.S. I think that Shout Factory is doing a good job of re-releasing some classic music such as Marshall Tucker Band albums. I bought most of these and have played them to death!!!
November 4, 2008some material is repetitive but overall a must for any blues listener or any other music listener. the nuances of his playing develope deeper with each listening. hooker, buddy guy, b.b. king--what a great cache of music we have at our eartips to listen to.
March 21, 2007This chronology of Hooker recordings is simply awesome! To walk through the progression of songs from early recordings to the present is simply mesmerizing. Some titles are repeated throughout the 4 disc set put are clearly an evolution of the artist. It is clear why he influenced so many artists, too. You can't go wrong with this set.
March 13, 2007If you like the blues you gotta get these 4 CDs. At times the songs may seem sparse and repetitive but there is so much soul in them I can listen to them over and over again. A wonderful overview of John Lee Hooker's career. Excellent remastering.
February 25, 2007 This box set starts out with acoustic foot tapping blues just as you would expect but by the middle of disc 2 it really picks up.Disc 3 and 4 is John Lee Hooker at his finest.He truly was one of the best at singing and playing the blues.I would recommend this to anyone who loves the Blues.
