John Lee Hooker was the tiny man with the huge guitar and an even bigger voice.
He was all of 5'5', yet he chose to play one of the largest guitars you could buy.
The guitar had a fat and rich sound, and it complimented his vocals. John Lee's deep voice sounded like the actor Morgan Freeman. His voice resonated with a calm authority, and the loudest John Lee got was singing 'pow pow pow pow'. His most notable songs include 'Boom Boom', 'One Bourbon, One Scotch and One Beer', and 'Boogie Chillen'. He recorded with many great artists such as Ry Cooder, Van Morrison, Eric Clapton, and Pete Townshend to name just a few.
