dbo:abstract
  • John Lee Hooker (August 22, 1917 – June 21, 2001) was an American blues singer, songwriter and guitarist. He was born in Mississippi, the son of a sharecropper, and rose to prominence performing an electric guitar-style adaptation of Delta blues. Hooker often incorporated other elements, including talking blues and early North Mississippi Hill country blues. He developed his own driving-rhythm boogie style, distinct from the 1930s–1940s piano-derived boogie-woogie style. Some of his best known songs include %22Boogie Chillen'%22 (1948), %22Crawling King Snake%22 (1949), %22Dimples%22 (1956), %22Boom Boom%22 (1962), and %22One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer%22 (1966) – the first being the most popular race record of 1949.
