This Live Radio Broadcast Recording from 1995 is hosted by John Lee Hooker and features performances by Hooker himself as well as his daughter Zakiya, Lazy Lester, John Hammond, Charlie Musselwhite, Taj Mahal, and Ry Cooder.

The Duke Robillard band are the House Band for the night as they accompany the above in some rollicking blues numbers. As well as the Hooker/Cooder playing on the final three tracks the Blues harp of both Charlie Musselwhite and Lazy Lester are rocking reminders of how this music should be heard. John Lee Hooker fittingly closes the evening following up on a great version of She Caught The Katy by Taj Mahal.

Everybody on this sound like they are having a great time and are happy to be part of a celebratory evening of the electric blues.
