Earl Hooker | Play Your Guitar Mr Hooker!

Play Your Guitar Mr. Hooker Review

 

by Bill Dahl

1964-1967 output by the guitarist that was largely done for the tiny Cuca logo of Sauk City, WI. The normally tight-lipped Hooker proves that he could sing on this romping version of "Swear to Tell the Truth," while A.C. Reed, Little Tommy, Frank Clark, and Muddy Waters, Jr. help out behind the mike elsewhere. A pair of live cuts from 1968 find Hooker stretching out in amazing fashion.

Earl Hooker is considered to be one of the most important blues guitarists of the post-war era.
