5.0 out of 5 stars abslolutely a must, outstanding music and quality sound
This is such a treat, especially for those who have heard the old time recordings . A wonderful job of presenting the old music with nearly zero sound defects. If you like Junior Wells' Hoodoo Man Blues, this you will like even better! A bit quicker and more toe-tapping.

1.0 out of 5 stars muddled sound
I just purchased this based on reading reviews. Should have been aware of anything "remastered". Sound is very muddled. Now I am unsure of all reviews that I read on here. Would have felt taken if I had bought this in bargain bin much less for this price.

I thought that the remastering was done excellently and would recommend this cd to anyone. I want some RealPlayer samples that I can download from anywhere, though, please.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Perfect Starter CD, January 3, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: 20th Century Masters: The Best Of John Lee Hooker (Millennium Collection) (Audio CD)
This CD is great for those of you that enjoy the more upbeat side of Johnny Lee. Think Twice Before You Go and Sugar Mama really stand out to me. It is one of the first blues discs I ever purchased and my taste in music has never been the same. I feel this is a must for any newcomer to the blues. Its worth it.

5.0 out of 5 stars This is an awesome collection of JLH!, February 1, 2008
This review is from: 20th Century Masters: The Best Of John Lee Hooker (Millennium Collection) (Audio CD)
John Lee Hooker is a blues icon. His guitar, his songs, and better yet, his sound are all so original and awesome. And he has always been well deserving of a collection in UMG's 20th Century Masters series.

Positives
-Great song choice. 'One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer,' 'It Serves You Right To Suffer,' 'Ground Hog Blues,' 'I'm Bad Like Jesse James,' and 'Walkin' The Boogie' are all here for your pleasure.
-The sound quality is excellent.
Negatives
None.

One may want more JLH after hearing this CD, but if your a casual fan or a beginner, this is perfect. Another excellent entry in the 20th Century Masters series. ENJOY!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars good one but lacks deapth., February 20, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: 20th Century Masters: The Best Of John Lee Hooker (Millennium Collection) (Audio CD)
this is a good one, but lacks deapth. in 'country blues of john lee hooker' he is really deep in the blues. 'country blues' consists of all his original songs. he plays an acoustic guitar and sings alone. you may try 'country blues of john lee hooker', too.
