Description
LIGHTNIN” HOPKINS Lightnin’ Strikes hails from 2022 and is a SEALED exclusive 180 Gram LP. Lightnin’ Strikes is the electrifying 1962 blues album from Lightnin’ Hopkins, one of the most prolific bluesmen to ever live. This LP brings together some early-'60s sides that Hopkins recorded for the Chicago-based Vee-Jay label, although all of them were recorded in his native Houston. Lightnin's spoken introduction sets up the hilarious "Big Car Blues," part of five live tracks aboard, before setting up eight heavily reverbed studio tracks from Bill Quinn's Gold Star Studios. The final two are full-band tracks produced by drummer King Ivory Lee Semiens with Lightnin' playing electric. It's here on AAA 180g black audiophile vinyl pressed at GZ with lacquers cut from the original master tapes by Ryan Smith of Sterling Sound.
