For some odd reason John Lee Hooker is on my mind. I have written about him on several occasions (here, here and here) and I think it is a good time to do another post on him and his music because his birthday was on 22 Aug.
Here are a few links to blogs that have recently posted some of his music.
In a post titled "Somewhere There's A Drink With My Name On It" from the On Cyprus Avenue you can find an mp3 of John Lee Hooker's song "Hittin The Bottle Again."
And here is another great post from the blog trees lounge. He has been doing a post on all the states, and his Kentucky State post includes an mp3 of John Lee Hooker's song "One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer."
And one last mp3 for your consideration. The right Reverend Frost posted a versions of John Lee's "Whiskey & Women in his great blog. This is another one of those post that has some really good music in it.
And here are a group of Videos from YouTube
John Lee Hooker & Santana - The Healer
John Lee Hooker & Santana - Chill Out
