Hi All,

I'm trying to track down two John Lee Hooker CDs:

"The Very Best of John Lee Hooker - I'm The Boogie Man" issued on Collectables containing mostly his recordings on Deluxe and King.
discogs link:
https://www.discogs.com/release/15504886-John-Lee-Hooker-The-Very-Best-Of-John-Lee-Hooker-Im-The-Boogie-Man

And the other is "I'm A Boogie Man -- Essential Masters 1948-1953" on Varese Vintage.
discogs link:
https://www.discogs.com/release/11261115-John-Lee-Hooker-Im-A-Boogie-Man-The-Essential-Masters-1948-53

Any help much appreciated.

Edit - "I'm A Boogie Man" is 192 & surprisingly among the 100 gigabytes of John Lee Hooker that Chris has posted I don't see the Collectables compilation. All tracks are certainly available at this site on other compilations

Thanks a lot for another volume of the hot jazz compilations. I haven't listened to the first one yet (Argentine), but they seem both fund and interesting.

@Anonymous John,
Actually, I'm quite familiar with https://yousayblues.blogspot.com - it's been an essential source for a good number of years. As you noted, the Collectables CD is [surpisingly / disappointingly] missing. And, if you can believe it, the tracks included in the Varese Vintage "I'm A Boogie Man - Essential Masters" listing are incorrect, and are in fact all Vee-Jay recordings from a later era. Surprised the hell out of me :-)

No doubt the King/DeLuxe/Chart tracks I'm after are available elsewhere, but as per the "John Lee Hooker Best Sources Thread" on Hoffman forums, those two CDs contain selected tracks whose mastering is superior to the typically lousy mastering found on the vast majority of JLH's early output, heavy-handed noise reduction in particular.

Devon Russell (died 18 June 1997) aka Devon Irons, was a Jamaican rocksteady and reggae singer and record producer who recorded between the 1960s and the 1990s, both as a solo artist and as a member of The Tartans and Cultural Roots.

Russell's career began in the 1960s with the Tartans, a group which also included Prince Lincoln Thompson, Linbergh "Preps" Lewis, and Cedric Myton. When the Tartans disbanded, Russell embarked on a solo career, and for a time joined Cultural Roots as lead singer. He also recorded with Myton as Devon & Cedric. In the mid-1970s, Russell recorded for Lee "Scratch" Perry under the name Devon Irons, recording "Vampire". In the early 1980s he recorded for Clement "Coxsone" Dodd's Studio One label, and his debut solo album, Roots Music, was produced by Dodd and released on Sweet Music Records in 1982.

Would anyone have any Black Pistol Fire albums? I am especially interested in their first album (Black Pistol Fire), as well as Big Beat, and Deadbeat Grafitti.
Thanks in advance.
