    My favorite: the boogie years, 1940s-50s.

    Yeah, he is one of my favorites blues guys. I saw him in concert about a year before he died and he was still good.

    I too, was fortunate enough to see Mr. Hooker (I think) about 2 years before he passed on. He couldn't really play his guitar anymore, the backing group did most of the musical stuff, but wow, the man could still sing.
