This review is from: John Lee Hooker & Friends (1984-1992) (DVD)

The quality for the earlier filmed footage on this disc is much better than the Immortal version. The Ry Cooder 10 minutes of footage is better quality on the Immortal DVD. The Immortal DVD has 3 audio options, data is 3300 mbs, earlier release is 2800 mbs. I bought for Albert Collins and his performance is limited to "The Boogie", just some scat licks,one year before his death. I recorded this off A&E in 1995 (this may be best quality but shorter Ry Cooder), I like it better on the DVD. Not really disappointed. Vestapol is PICTURE DISC of John Lee ( same as covr ), Immortal is not. Buy the Vestapol. Pass on the Immortal. The Definitive is cheap right now($11) , buy it and the Vestapol DVD.

This review is from: & Friends [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Featuring Albert Collins, Ry Cooder, Robert Cray, John Hammond, Charlie Musselwhite, Bonnie Raitt & others. John Lee Hooker is one of the few legendary bluesmen who has cracked the MTV barrier. He has recorded and performed with a host of contemporary pop-stars. John Lee's music hasn't changed but the accompanying musicians have. This 60 minute video presents John Lee performing with many of his friends from 1984 to 1992. Ry Cooder duets on three tracks. Robert Cray burns up the fretboard on "Mr. Lucky" and Bonnie Raitt cajoles and teases the Hook on "I'm In The Mood."
