Earl Hooker, Blues Master Paperback - 2001
by Sebastian Danchin
The life and early death of a South Side guitar genius is told in this biography of the greatest unheralded Chicago bluesmaker. On the verge of international stardom when he died of tuberculosis in 1970, Hooker's life story has all the elements of a great blues song: late nights, long roads, poverty, trouble, and a soul-felt pining for what could have been. 16 illustrations.
First line
The life of Earl Hooker-like that of many mythical figures-is filled with the historical inconsistencies that both plague the historian and help build up true legends.

Description:
Paperback / softback. New. "Earl Hooker's life may tell us a lot about the blues," biographer Sebastian Danchin says, "but it also tells us a great deal about his milieu. This book documents the culture of the ghetto through the example of a central character, someone who is to be regarded as a catalyst of the characteristic traits of his community."
