John Lee Hooker - Burnin’ (60th Anniversary Edition)

Time has proven 1961 album Burnin' to be an important and highly influential release. It was seen as a departure at the time, his standard line up being replaced by Motown session musicians, resulting in a fuller sound. Features the classic 'Boom Boom'.

Celebrating the 60th anniversary of Hooker’s electrifying blues classic, Burnin’, this 180-gram reissue offers newly remastered audio from the original analog tapes. Featuring a stereo mix of the album, as it was first released in 1962, the set includes the King of the Boogie’s signature hit, “Boom Boom,” and features members of the legendary Funk Brothers (Motown Records’ celebrated house band).  A tip-on jacket, which replicates Vee-Jay Records’ original designs, rounds out the package.
