The Country Blues of John Lee Hooker (also known as The Folk Blues of John Lee Hooker) is an album by blues musician John Lee Hooker, recorded in Detroit in 1959 and released by Riverside Records in January 1960.
The Penguin Guide to Blues Recordings said, "Riverside required Hooker to play only acoustic guitar. What motivated this redirection, and in particular the 'classic blues' repertoire on the first album was a view of the blues - you might say a politics of the blues - very much of its time ... though, as always with Hooker the result is not exact commemoration so much as highly personalised allusion". - Wikipedia
