John Lee Hooker... died 7 years ago today (6/21/2001). 7's not a "magic" number, perhaps (except in craps?), but JLH was probably the biggest influence from "graduating" me from a Blues Brothers fan to, a BLUES fan, so always a notable day for me. I drink a few bourbons and several beers (no scotch in the house tonight!). Boogie On, John.

Aw man, same here.
Don't tell anyone, but he's the only act I liked when I first saw the movie!
RIP John Lee Hooker

Now is a good time to ask this:
When Jake,Elwood and the band are on their way to Bob's which version of "Boogie Chillun" was playing?

Not sure, but it's the same version I've heard on 3 different Hooker compilations. I can tell you it's on Boom Boom and Other Classics.
