• Track Listing

This 11-track compilation includes several that have only been released once before (on a UK budget CD in 1997) and others that were recorded in France with guest guitarist Lowell Fulson. The undeniable highlight is the full 18 and a half minutes of "I Hated The Day I Was Born," a slow brooding blues that has never before been issued in its entirely. It’s a self-contained testament to the power of John Lee Hooker’s presence, and when it’s over, you’ll agree that not a second was superfluous. Simply sublime!
