“Burnin’” by John Lee Hooker - album review

features in: Album Chart of 1962Album Chart of the Decade: 1960s

TJR says

Another solid set from the cool bluesman, this time backed all the way with a full complement of players: John Lee Hooker (vocals, guitar), Hank Cosby (tenor sax), Andrew Terry (baritone sax), Joe Hunter (piano), Larry Veeder (guitar), James Jamerson (bass) and Benny Benjamin (drums). Yep, that’s right, TWO saxophonists. And not a wooden pallet to be seen nor heard. John Lee’s a complete dude; you simply can’t go wrong with any of his proper early LPs.
