Η Shout! Factory επανεκδίδει τα δύο κλασικά άλμπουμ του John Lee Hooker "The Healer" και "Mr. Lucky"

“So primal he subsumes all corruption, the old man – he turned 131 in August – accepts as his due ace solos etc. from Robert Cray, Albert Collins, Carlos Santana, Johnny Winter, etc. The rock moves don’t impede the groove any more than unaccompanied stomps would, and rarely has he enjoyed a shuffle as definitive as the one Jim Keltner, Nick Lowe, Ry Cooder, and to-the-session-born Johnnie Johnson lay under "This Is Hip." He hasn’t released a more thrilling or hypnotic album since he was 112.”A-Robert Christgau- Rolling Stone
