John Lee Hooker, who was born 97 years ago on August 22, 1917, broke from blues convention to create a free-flowing guitar style that didnt default to I-IV-V. His songs made the guitar a sinister accompaniment to his rambling vocals. After recording more than 100 albums, Hooker—who became a legend in his own time—died in 2001 at age 83. Listen to his greatness with this live version of Boom Boom. youtu.be/rOyj4ciJk34
