Farewell to John Lee,
By
This review is from: From Clarksdale To Heaven Rem (Audio CD)
From a child of his body and the children of his music, this is a chance to pay respects to the man who made his guitar a blacksmith's anvil and pounded out rhythms of sorrow. Look for Jack Bruce's Ozzy Osbourne-like sneer on "I'm in the Mood," along with Gary Moore's Godzilla footsteps on guitar. That's Jeff Beck playing robot-metallic notes on "Will the Circle Be Unbroken" and "Hobo Blues," and Peter Green's vocal sounds like a decaying zombie obeying his master on "Crawling King Snake." John Lee himself paints a "Red House" with something other than crimson pigment, and I've got to credit Robert Hunter's composition, "The Business," by Greggs Eggs vocalist Suzanne Sterling for giving the old man that special smile with a posthumous kiss.

Good lineup,

This review is from: From Clarksdale To Heaven Rem (Audio CD)
I enjoyed listening to different interpetions of Hooker's work from various artists. I think Gary Moore's touch on Serve Me Right To Suffer was great. Peter Green on Crawlin' King Snake was a nice touch. Of course having Hooker himself on Red House was worth the price of the CD.

Only John Lee can play pure Hooker Magic!,
By evert van den hooven (DELFT Netherlands) - See all my reviews
This review is from: From Clarksdale To Heaven Rem (Audio CD)
Many great stars try to copy him on this cd. But what a pity, only Jack Bruce/Gary Moore and Peter Green can bring you in the real mood with their wonderful interpretations. The third star is for the master himself in a lovely duet with Booker T. Conclusion: Hooker is not to copy! He was so much more than only music. For instance listen to The Hot Spot, where he is only murmling. Only one of the greatest can do that. I'm ending with his words: "Once I'll die, but my music never will."
