Description
John Lee HookerModern 948'Shake, Holler and Run' / 'Half a Stranger'
10" 78 rpm record, originally released circa 1954
Great pairing from the Mississippi / Detroit blues legend. One side is his well known conversational blues style with soulful guitar and the other is a distinctly rock n roll style cut, with a band, doing a familiar sounding number akin to 'Shake, Rattle and Roll'. You don't hear John Lee rock in this way often. A unique one!
GRADE: VV+, due to some grey grooves, plays strong
ITEM DETAILS: Scratches / wear typical of age / some grey grooves, not obtrusive. Sound is strong with background noise common with 78s. Your playback may vary. The record plays well on my setup. See photos and ask any questions.
