JOHN LEE FOR PREZ
"Great guitar" - Corfu Blues Man
Have the porter's boy run like the wind to Nonesuch.
"One of the best albums of a distinguished career ... the sharp gallows humour and uncanny impersonation on John Lee Hooker for President, which imagines the great old bluesman's manifesto for the White House."
"Everyone gets one bourbon, one scotch, one beer
Three times a day if they stay cool
And little chill’uns get milk, cream and alcohol
Two times a day if they stay involved in school."

You got there first!
Great guitar.
Oh Em Gee - the **voice**. i had to check and re-listen and ... that is almost lèse majesté. Of course i go there first: 2 bars in, the blood drained and it was like "Big Jim gotta hear this one. Pray god i'm time. Pity i'se already sent the porter's boy off to Nonesuch ... up to me now to puff and wheeze the good nooz from Aix to Zagori". Now there's a blues to work on, LHM.
