4.0 out of 5 starsNot exact, but over all a good tab book16 July 2012

The tab book is not always what you hear from Hookers recordings, but this may be due to the many years he played the same songs and probably changed a note here and there. I find with most tab books, they are a good base to go from, but would recommend you find other tabs online and just go with your gut instinct if something does not sound right, which is pretty much what John Lee Hooker was all about (Gut instinct). I have this book of Hooker and the Definitive Collection CD to hear what he is actually doing and a TASCAM to loop and slow it down. With these three tools, I am progressing at a good pace, and enjoying his finger picking style.

The blues can't be learned just reading on a tab, you MUST listen to them, or the book will be useless. That said, it's always good news to see a book on John Lee Hooker. But...
