Tracks list

 A cross-section of hot Hooker at his prime with great solo performances and
small combo recordings, when he was making sides exclusively for the black
audience in the late 40s-early 50s.

Here is a new CD of vintage Hooker recordings culled from the private tape
vaults of Bernie Besman and Joe Bihari. At this stage, you might think it safe
to assume that there is nothing left unissued from Hookers early years in
Detroit. Wrong! Ace researcher, the intrepid Ray Topping, has put together a
release that combines classic early Hooker recordings many of which have never
been available on CD before together with a total of FIVE previously unissued
recordings.

From April 1950 comes a previously unheard version of Hookers blues smash Im In
The Mood which features John Lee playing harmonica! Hooker admitted to Jim & Amy
ONeal in an interview for Living Blues Magazine many moons ago, I used to blow
harmonica, yeah! Im a Little Walter freak, I used to play all the time, but I
quit. Here is the recorded evidence, the only known recording featuring Hooker
on harmonica! This CD also includes, released for the first time, alternate
recordings of Numbers Blues, House Rent Boogie,
Build Myself A Cave, Key To The Highway and I Got Eyes For You. A total of 24
tracks featuring Hooker solo, also with Little Eddie Kirkland on second guitar
and vocals and in full flight rockin out hard with his combo, the Boogie
Ramblers!
