I could really use some help folks. I do not make money out of thin air. I know I'm Jesus and all but I'm a lot like you, gots to have money to do as you do.

Or, Please buy a "Take A Look" CD or Poster, I apologize that the four song CD "The Way You Looked" Sold Out! I think I sold ten copies:-). Maybe eleven. I won't be doing a second run on the "Take A Look" CD or Posters, so get your's while you can. I only have approximately 200 left or less.

"Boom Boom" is one of the kickinest songs ever. Love this guys work and persona. Blues right down to the git go.

John Lee Hooker (August 22, 1917 -- June 21, 2001) was an American blues singer-songwriter and guitarist, born near Clarksdale, Mississippi. His best known songs include "Boogie Chillen" (1948) and "Boom Boom" (1962).

The songs that most epitomize his early sound are "Boogie Chillen", about being 17 and wanting to go out to dance at the Boogie clubs, "Baby Please Don't Go", a blues standard first recorded by Big Joe Williams, and "Tupelo Blues",[12] a stunningly sad song about the flooding of Tupelo, Mississippi in April 1936.

His songs have been covered by Cream, AC/DC, ZZ Top, Led Zeppelin, Tom Jones, Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton, Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds, Van Morrison, The Yardbirds, The Animals, Buddy Guy, The Doors, The White Stripes, MC5, George Thorogood, R. L. Burnside, The J. Geils Band, The Wheels, The Gories, Cat Power, Big Head Todd and the Monsters and The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion.

I have been listening to a few of your video's and Im very impressed!! Everything just comes together; your guitar playing, your voice and the way you play. You play with soul and feeling, and this comes out in your music.  With more music and musicians like yourself, the world would be a better place. I appreciate what you do and who you are, keep it up and rocking out!! Peace to you and everyone out there!!
