John Lee Hooker with Ry Cooder - Boom Boom

Here's Ry Cooder with John Lee Hooker and the fellahs live from the House Of Blues in 1995. Everyone knows Boom Boom - which John Lee wrote and recorded in 1961 - and lots of people have covered it, including The Animals, Yardbirds, Bruce Springsteen, Dr. Feelgood and, er, Mae West (no innuendo intended)... www.rycooderstuff.co.uk

John Lee - I saw him in l977....but discovered Ry Cooder much later....both are genius, in their fields....nobody copies them as good as the originals.
