JOHN LEE HOOKER with the GROUNDHOGS \ HOOKER and the HOGS 1965.
A FEW WORDS :
McPhee and the Groundhogs' most important musical legacy, this 1996 reissue of Hooker & The Hogs has an unusual history.
Tony McPhee and the Groundhogs first played with John Lee Hooker in June of 1964, when John Mayall & the Bluesbreakers were unable to fulfill a commitment to back Hooker on the final week of his British tour.
The Groundhogs were deputized on the spot and played their first show with him at the Twisted Wheel in Manchester. At the end of the week, Hooker told McPhee how much he liked working with his band and agreed to use the Groundhogs as his backing band on his next visit to England.
Hooker was back in May and June of 1965, and not only used them as his band but recorded this album with the Groundhogs.
The band was Tony McPhee on guitar, Peter Cruickshank on bass, Dave Boorman on drums, and Tom Parker on keyboards.
A SUPERB ALBUM!!
