Description: | Reissued 1964 album, â??Burning Hellâ?? includes one of John Lee Hookerâ??s lesser known gems from his most inspired years. â??Burning Hellâ?? is quite different from his earlier recordings, most of which had featured Hooker on an electric guitar with his trademark reverb and stomping foot. In addition to the original masterpiece, this remastered collectorâ??s edition also contains 8 bonus tracks, including a number of solo recordings taped in different locations between 1952 and 1961. - Burning Hell was recorded in 1959 in Detroit, but the album wasn't released until 1964. Even then, it was only available in the UK. This 180-gram vinyl pressing marks the first official single LP worldwide release the album has seen. Pressed at QRP in partnership with Acoustic Sounds, the album features John Lee Hooker solo as he plays originals and classics. AllMusic states that, on this album, "Hooker shows himself to be an excellent interpreter who could have held his own with Delta bluesmen of any era."Part of the Bluesville / Acoustic Sounds Series. Includes blue obi strip, housed in a tip-on jacket.
Runouts are etched except TML-M is stamped."Burning Hell (Bluesville Acoustic Sounds Ser. LP)" is a remarkable vinyl release by the legendary bluesman John Lee Hooker, brought to you by Concord Records. This album captures Hooker's raw and hypnotic Delta blues style, recorded in 1959 but released later due to its powerful authenticity and stripped-down acoustic sound. The LP features standout tracks like "Graveyard Blues," "Baby Please Don't Go," and the haunting title track "Burning Hell." Each song showcases Hooker's deep voice, rhythmic guitar work, and storytelling prowess that have made him an icon of American music.
John Lee Hooker was one of the most influential figures in modern blues history. Born in Mississippi in 1917, he developed a unique boogie-woogie guitar style that set him apart from his contemporaries. Over his long career, he received multiple Grammy Awards and was inducted into both the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame and the Blues Hall of Fame. His hits such as ?Boom Boom? and ?One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer? are timeless classics.
