Description
PLEASE READ BEFORE BIDDING: Please read the entire auction listing, including shipping costs, before writing to ask a question. OUR GOAL IS CUSTOMER SATISFACTION. In order to meet that goal, we will ALWAYS work with our customers on any concerns that may arise. Because of that dedication, there should be no need to open a resolution dispute before working with us. Please keep in mind, we would prefer to continue to provide you the opportunity to acquire the rare music we present each and every week. Payment is required within seven days. We mail all paid items ONE WEEK after auctions end. Our listings are time consuming in detail and we are often traveling to find these gems, which at times delays the delivery schedule by a day or two. We ALWAYS process and ship every paid order. We have no control over parcels once they are mailed from our local Post Office. Overseas mail to some countries (Italy, Russia, France, in particular) has become very slow. Opening a dispute for slow mail is unacceptable. We work hard to provide excellent service as is represented by our well over 18,000 positive feedback. We use an ultrasonic KLAudio machine and thoroughly clean all records. Each order is carefully packaged by removing the LP from the jacket to avoid seam splits, use of 3 ml plastic cover sleeves over each LP and jacket, cardboard pad inserts, and placed in sturdy record mailers for safe delivery. We take Customer Service seriously, and want you to be satisfied. Please give us 5 stars in each category through the feedback system, and we will be able to effectively continue to fulfill your passion for rare and collectible music!

ESSENTIAL COOKIN' BLUES-ROCKER COLLECTION COPY !
- PLAYS CLEAN
ORIGINAL 1971 DOUBLE LP SET in thick gatefold cover...while it is getting so hard to find this classic blues cooker -- it IS more so hard to find CLEAN without much shelf wear...which is what this special 40 year old collectible is all about! The gatefold being super wear-prone is almost ALWAYS found with much wear, the dark cover just didn't wear well and finding a decent copy like this is really rare....plus the records are both near M- top level....
Canned Heat are hands down the best back-up band John Lee Hooker has recorded with since his hot-shot country-blues groups that blazed anonymously through the studios in the early Fifties.
Much of the credit in this sprawling double album goes to Canned Heat's planning and programming. They have caught Hooker in a variety of settings: soloist in his own characteristic idiom; playing a fantastic series of duets with the late "Blind Owl" Wilson; and fronting the entire band (minus Hite, who worked on the project, and spread his infectious good humor, from the control booth) for some righteous, raunchy boogie.
Canned Heat have made no secret of the fact that their entire boogie series, spread over some three albums, draws its inspiration from Hooker's work, so the combination is a natural. The second album in this two-record set is given over to Canned Heat numbers, and it's the best of the two.
"Blind Owl" Wilson's presence doesn't need to be over-advertised; he is very strong throughout, mostly in a very subtle way. Hooker has noted his admiration for Wilson several times, and their generation-spanning empathy is very evident here, especially on side two, which is given over mostly to Hooker with Wilson's harp and piano. Hooker remarks. "I don't know how that boy keeps up with me." It's no easy trick, keeping up with John Lee, but that's just what Alan does, laying down some amazing playing, especially on harp, in the process.
Guitarist BIG FUZZ "Sunflower" Henry Vestine is also very strong, even though he like Wilson is subservient to Hooker's thing. Vestine once told an interviewer his greatest ambition was to record with John Lee Hooker. With the release of Hooker 'N Heat, Henry has fulfilled his ambitions at a very young age; there was no place for him to go but up.
Mention should be made of the earth-moving power of Antonio de la Barreda and Adolfo de la Parra. the Heat's south-of-the-border rhythm section, and of the engineering, which may still be a little too clean for Hooker, but then, nobody records in barns anymore. Hooker fans are going to dig this record, and so are Heat fans, and that includes a lot of people. Let 'em boogie!
