John Lee Hooker, one of the best bluesmen EVER, died. To all you ignorant pups-he wrote many of the old RnR songs(that weren't Carl Perkins) & never made a dime nor saw his name in the credits/liner notes. It is truly a sad day in music-06/21/01
I like the Blues. I saw BB King in 1985 at FarmAid. It's too bad that I never heard much of John Lee Hooker. He was one of the greats from what people have said on radio talk shows in the past.
