John Lee Hooker - Burning Hell (Bluesville Acoustic Sounds Series) [CD]

Burning Hell was recorded in 1959 in Detroit, MI, but wasn’t released until 1964 on Riverside Records. Even then, it was only available in Europe. The album features 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.”
