Editorial Reviews

Product Description
John Lee Hooker is one of the giants of the blues, and his 1950s stint at Vee-Jay Records was an early commercial and creative peak for him. 1959's I'm John Lee Hooker was his first electric blues album. A collection of the best of his early Vee-Jay sides, it features such hits as "Dimples" and "Boogie Chillun" in their best-known versions, as heard in the movie The Blues Brothers and in countless other films and commercials. "One of the great blues collections of the post-World War II era."--All Music Guide

5.0 out of 5 stars An Excellent Collection, May 16, 2008
Very nice. A lot of variety here. Sounds nice too. Serves as a good intro to John Lee but works for me even though I have many other discs and albums by him.
