I have both of those albums, but they are in a box in the basement. I remember liking them once along with The Girl from Ipanema. I haven't listened to them in 30 years. Not good enough in my book to take up limited shelf space in my listening room.Laura
Well Din look what you started Canned Heat ~ Future Blues
Sorry Bill! From what I've read, "canned heat" refers to "sterno" which has been a drink of desperation among alcoholic bums, tramps and blues sorts. It's made from a jellied alcohol substance and is meant to be burned directly from the can to heat food sources like chaffing dishes, fondue pots, etc. Sterno was never meant to be consumed, of course, unless one knew the voodoo, secret, magical ritual such as pouring it through a slice of white bread, then through an old wool sock and collecting it in a glass jar while incanting the sacred chants taught to Robert Johnson at the cross roads. I'm sure that drinking sterno gives one an edge on gettin' the blues, which of course leads to the boogie woogie. I've never heard the Hooker N' Heat album, only read about it.DinPS. Please don't try drinking sterno at home over the holidays. Egg nog is a better choice!

It's good, a bit jazzy, I'll bet one of your three is the place to start, though. What do you recommend as the quintessential disk?Paul
