Summary
John Lee Hooker was a teenage runaway who never went to school and who spent years working in a factory before becoming one of the most prolific Blues artists of all times. Filmed just a few years before his death, this is an inside look at the life and times of this Blues legend and the music that influenced a rising generation of rockers. John Lee tells the tale himself, with help from his family, closest friends and musical colleagues including Eric Clapton, Bonnie Raitt, Carlos Santana and Robert Cray. Includes rare live performance footage.
