It Serve You Right to Suffer

"Classic John Lee Hooker albums don't get any better than his 1966 smoking IT SERVES YOU RIGHT TO SUFFER one of the most appreciated albums by the blues legend. The tracks found on It Serves You Right To Suffer play as such a strong and concise effort, and fully serves as one of the greatest blues albums of all time. Why is it so great? It has real rockin' boogie tunes: "Shake it Baby" (fab) and "Money" - and Great Sweat-soaked slow numbers: "Decoration Day", "Serves You Right to Suffer".

No filler material on this LP ... great backing band that keeps a loose anchor and lets Johnny Lee do his thing. Backed by the sympathetic quartet of guitarist Barry Galbraith, legendary bassist Milt Hinton, drummer David Panama Francis, and William Wells - whose interjections sometimes give the bluesy tunes an unexpected but surprisingly effective '20s jazz feel. Hooker's boogie-style slide guitar sounds right at home."

This is possibly the best full-band recording of Hooker's long career, and one of interest even to those who prefer his solo guitar-and-voice records. Highlights include the incendiary title track and the rollicking "Shake It Baby."  "Country Boy", "You´re Wrong", "Sugar Mama", "Money" and the title-track are fine examples of how good this album is.


A thoroughly richly satisfying listening experience. Tight package of great moods and heart-tearin' blues.  Leaves no other option than to grab it and Shake it Baby!
