John Lee Hooker - That's My Story - import LP

John Lee Hooker
That's My Story
Ace CH 259

"Everybody wants to know my story..." sings John Lee Hooker on the final selection of this album, the number from which this collection of deep-down blues takes its name. Actually, the song That's My Story is largely a factual-geographical rundown on the cities Hooker has lived and worked in (starting with his first job at "the New Daisy Picture Show" in Memphis, Tennessee). That IS a part of his story, but certainly not all of it. The real, full story is in the blues he sings a and plays - therefore, this entire LP is filled with the story that John Lee Hooker has to tell us. Hooker accompanies himself on guitar throughout, and is joined by jazzers Sam Jones on bass and Louis Hayes on drums on most of the tracks.
