Grock81fr (1 year ago) It's the most powerful version of Boom boom. The bass and the drums slug well. The introduction of that version is my favorite but I appreciate much less the "chorus cries" and that guitar solo. Thanks for that video.

Justusosaa (8 months ago) Great singer. This is music, music to be listened and to be enjoyed.

az58cats (8 months ago) there were few blues guitarists who could come close to Stevie Ray, Buddy Guy, et al. But there were even fewer Blues Men who could come close to John Lee, Muddy Waters, Lighting Hopkins, Howlin Wolf, Big Mama Thornton, et al. Of these, John Lee was and always will be, my favorite

Diatton (5 months ago) Maybe the best video i have ever seen since 1981, the year i started to listen the Blues! John Lee wasn't only an amazing musician, he was also a magician! You may see it here! Miles away from everyone else! Only Muddy Waters got close to him!

rickubdrs (4 months ago) I feel so blessed and lucky to have been able to see JLH live (along with Muddy, Buddy, BB and some of their proteges) so many times ... guess that's the plus side of being an "old" dude and having the good fortune of living in New Orleans in the 70's - 90's... My thanks to JLH and the person who posted this video.
