John Lee Hooker's raw, stripped down electric blues have more power than a locomotive barreling down the track at 90 mph- somebody done him wrong here and he's got eight tracks to let you know.
Featuring the a barest of bones for a backing band- stalwart session men Barry Galbraith on rhythm guitar, Milt Hinton on the bass and Panama Francis on drums as well as Dicky Wells on the trombone for a track (Money) and the inimitable Billy Preston on the keys for a few songs.
The name of this record was eventually changed from the colloquial to the proper use of the word "serves" but I'm leaving the spelling as it appears on the original release.
Check this one out!
