Me and Mr. Johnson

Slowhand's tribute to Delta blues legend Robert Johnson is released on March 23, 2004. The 14 covers are a "labor of love" and a long-held goal for Clapton to pay homage to one of his main musical influences. The band is a tad legendary, too -- Billy Preston on keyboards, Steve Gadd on drums, Nathan East on bass and Doyle Bramhall II. #ericclapton #slowhand #meandmrjohnson #blues #deltablues #robertjohnson #billypreston #stevegadd #music #musicsky…

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.
