    The look on the faces of Wood, Clapton, & Richards watching Hooker around the 3:00 minute mark! I’ve never heard quite those sounds out of a guitar, and I don’t think I ever saw Hooker up & moving like this.

    I was blessed to see this blues master back in the early 70's at the Long Beach Auditorium in Long Beach, Ca. He opened the show followed by Canned Heat doing the boogie/blues they were famous for. When they ended their set they honored their hero John Lee Hooker by having him return to the stage where they backed John Lee for about an hour long set!! Absolutely blew the roof off of the place! It doesn't get better than that.
