I got to see JLH, Big Joe Turner, Buffalo Norton and others whose names escape me.
John Lee Hooker was not in good health at the time. One of my buddies asked for an autograph on an album, that was when we learned he was illiterate. His signature looked more like a scribble.
Always liked his music.
I also went to those shows at the Nugget and saw some of those guys as well as the Coasters, Don Julian & the Meadowlarks, Chuck Higgins, and others. We were both probably in the audience at several of these.
