  1. JOHN LEE HOOKER
    It Serve You Right To Suffer
    2025 Worldwide reissue

    An incredible Acoustic Sounds Series reissue of what very well may be might favorite blues album of all time.

    I bought this about 6 months ago when I realized that my original U.S. pressing had had its last spin.
    Couldn’t be more pleased to have such a stunning sounding replacement for it.

    “Country Boy” is the greatest late-night blues tune in history; perfect for when you’re exhausted, waiting for the last few minutes of the day to tick away.

    “Sometime in travellin'
    I travel when nights are blue
    Sometime my night
    My night so dark and blue
    But I keep on travellin'
    No place to lay my worried head”

    Man is that ever right.

    JLH til the end of time.

  2. #YearPlaylist: 1948

    It's a short one for a change, but sometimes those are the best.

    Might as well call it CBGB because it's nothing but country, bluegrass, and various shades of blues.

    EDIT: eejit here forgot the link: youtube.com/playlist?list=PLfQ

  3. JOHN LEE HOOKER
    It Serve You Right To Suffer
    1966 U.S. stereo pressing

    Last night, while groggily stumbling around half asleep, I stubbed my toe on our brick fireplace and fractured my foot.
    I’m black, blue, swollen and miserable; in huge amounts of pain, so I figured some blues would be appropriate today while I’m laid up.

    Maybe it does serve me right. 😂
    Who knows…
