NEW John Lee Hooker - House of the Blues (180g Audiophile Vinyl LP, Jun-2018)
Review from another site: He was beloved worldwide as the king of the endless boogie, a genuine blues superstar whose droning, hypnotic one-chord grooves were at once both ultra-primitive and timeless. But John Lee Hooker recorded in a great many more styles than that over a career that stretched across more than half a century. "The Hook" was a Mississippi native who became the top gent on the Detroit blues circuit in the years following World War II. The seeds for his eerily mournful guitar sound were planted by his stepfather, Will Moore, while Hooker was in his teens. Hooker had been singing spirituals before that, but the blues took hold and simply wouldn't let go. Overnight visitors left their mark on the youth, too: legends like Blind Lemon Jefferson, Charley Patton, and Blind Blake, who all knew Moore.
This album, originally released in 1959 on Chess Records, collects 1951-1954 efforts by John Lee Hooker. Some important titles here are the ominous "Leave My Wife Alone," the stark "Sugar Mama," "Ramblin' by Myself," and with Eddie Kirkland ;on second guitar, "Louise" and "High Priced Woman."  Repressed in 2018 by Music On Vinyl on 180 gram audiophile vinyl.
