BoomBoom


Mister Boogie Chillun


Crawlin' King Snake


John Lee Hooker

 Detroit guitarist.

Hooker rarely played on a standard beat and could change tempo and chords in such an anarchic way, making it so hard for eventual backing musicians.
He recorded many songs alone playing guitar and foot-stomping on a wooden pallet. His style influenced many rock musicians from The Animals to the MC5 or ZZ Top.
Songs such as Boom Boom or Boogie Chillen became huge hits and were covered so many times.

Besides, I really like his socks.
