John Lee Hooker
John Lee Hooker (22 augustus 1917 - 21 juny 2001) wie in ynfloedrike en tige produktive Amearikaanske blues sjonger en gitarist, berne yn Clarksdale yn de steat Mississippi.
Syn opname-karriêre dy't mear as 50 jier beslaan soe, begûn yn 1948 doe't hy in jukebox-hit hie mei syn single "Boogie Chillen", mei in sjongparty yn in heal-sprutsen styl, dy't syn hannelsmerk wurde soe. Ritmysk sjoen wie syn muzyk tige frij, in eigenskip dy't mien wie yn de betide Delta blues. Syn fokale frasearring wie ek minder bûn oan de spesifike maat-yndieling as by oare bluesspilers. Alhoewol beynfloedde troch elektroanysk fersterke Chicago blues, soe Hooker as solo-artyst syn eigen betide styl yn eare hâlde.
Sa as safolle bluesspilers, waard ek Hooker yn de 60-er jierren omearme troch de folk-leafhawwers út dy tiid, en krige sa in grut 'wyt' publyk. Hy wie it dy't de noch jonge Bob Dylan in kâns joech om namme te meitsjen. In oar hichtepunt út syn karriêre kaam yn 1989 doe't Hooker mei in tal "gast-stjerren", wêrûnder Keith Richards en Carlos Santana it album "The Healer" opnaam, dat in Grammy award opsmite soe.
John Lee Hooker soe meiïnoar mear as 1000 opnames meitsje dy't op mear as 100 offisjele albums te hearren binne. Dêrneist binne der tsientallen yllegale platen en CD's (saneamde "bootlegs") op'e merke brocht. Yn syn muzikale jierren hat Hooker wat lûddragers oanbelanget de ûntwikkeling fan de 78-toere-plaat nei de LP, de CD en de earste DVD's meimakke.
De lêste jierren fan syn libben brocht Hooker troch yn San Fransisco, dêr't hy in nachtclub hie mei de namme "Boom Boom Boom", nei ien fan syn hits.
