"[Boogie Chillun] set the template for a style that often put its trust in a single riff, which he’d repeat, elaborate and then concentrate through the sheer dynamics of his playing and force of his vocal character. In that sense, Hooker’s approach had more in common with a Sufi singer like Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan than with most anyone reared in the Mississippi delta."
- Jim Farber, The Guardian
"King of the Boogie" John Lee Hooker is one of the most enduring superstars of the blues genre, his simple and emotive style transcending borders and finding its way into the hearts of music lovers around the globe. Hooked on the Blues was originally released in 1970 and contains such favourites as his first single Boogie Chillun, his homage to Tony Bennett 'Frisco and the amorous She Shot Me Down.
