{"product_id":"john-lee-hooker-never-get-out-of-these-blues-alive-lp-8102026","title":"John Lee Hooker - Never Get Out Of These Blues Alive - LP","description":"\u003cp\u003eNever Get Out Of These Blues Alive captures John Lee Hooker deep in his element, blending his raw blues style with contributions from notable artists like Van Morrison, Elvin Bishop, Charlie Musselwhite, and Steve Miller. Recorded in 1971 and released in 1972, the album offers a rich mix of Hooker’s original compositions alongside the collaborative \"T.B. Sheets,\" co-written with Morrison. The cover photo taken on a bus adds a touch of everyday grit, fitting for an album steeped in the realities and rhythms of the blues. It’s an album where the blues feel less like a genre and more like a shared journey—though hopefully one with fewer bus stops. This 1972 quadraphonic pressing presents the album on vinyl, ideal for those interested in an early '70s surround sound experiment. It comes graded \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/shoptheden.com\/blogs\/news\/how-we-grade-vinyl-records-at-the-den\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eVG\u003c\/a\u003e, indicating some surface wear and potential background noise, but still fully playable for listeners who don’t mind a few audible traces of its life on the shelves. The four additional tracks found in later reissues aren’t included here, making this pressing a straightforward snapshot of the original album experience. For anyone curious about Hooker’s work during this period or the interplay with his guest musicians, this vinyl offers a solid listen with a hint of vintage character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003csection data-track-listing=\"true\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTrack listing \u0026amp; samples\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJohn Lee Hooker - Never Get Out Of These Blues Alive\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSide A\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBumblebee, Bumblebee\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHit The Road\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCountry Boy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBoogie With The Hook\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSide B\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eT.B.
