John Lee Hooker (b. Aug 22, 1912) was raised in a Delta home where only spirituals were allowed to be sung and played. But his stepfather, Willam Moore, who taught young John Lee to play guitar, was a blues musician. The result of this diverse background can be heard in Hooker’s boogie-rhythm blues delivered with gospel fervor.

This month, our Gift Shop offers souvenirs of the “Boogie Man’s” musical legacy. A new “Boom Boom Boom Boom” poster, Hooker tees (available in two styles), a curated selection of CDs, a colorful biography, and a replica sign of John Lee Hooker Lane - the official address of the Delta Blues Museum - are all available in-person or online.

To celebrate summer blues festival time, Delta Blues Museum Band CDs are available this month only at a special price of $8. These recordings by musicians from our Arts and Education class, plus guest artists (Kenny Brown), feature classic favorites such as “Key to the Highway,” “Big Boss Man,” and “Boom Boom.” Quantities are limited, get yours today! 

The Museum appreciates your patronage and support - thank you!
