Let's Make It by Canned Heat & John Lee Hooker

Artist Biography For Canned Heat & John Lee Hooker

This 1971 Collaboration Between Primal One-Part-Delta/one-Part-Detroit Singer-Guitarist John Lee Hooker And Southern California Blues Revivalists Canned Heat Works In Large Part Because All Parties Involved Are A Little Off. Hooker The Most Unsystematic Of The Major Bluesmen Of His Generation Isn't A Good Fit For Disciplined Players Rather He Requires Sidemen Who Play By Feel. In Harp Player-Guitarist Alan Wilson The Crawling King Snake Found A Particularly Sympathetic Foil Sadly Wilson Died Shortly After These Sessions Were Completed. Roughly Divided Into Spare Gritty Delta Exercises And Full-On Boogie Stomps Featuring The Full Band Hooker 'n' Heat Is Surely One Of Canned Heat's Crowning Moments Which Isn't Saying That Much. But That It Stands As A Milestone In Hooker's Oeuvre Is Quite A Statement Indeed!
