The Rooster Crowed in England

The complete album + 2 bonus tracks - limited edition 180g audiophile pressing. Lightnin' Hopkins (1912-1982) was a country bluesman of the highest calibre whose career began in the 1920s and stretched all the way into the 1980s. One of the most influential blues guitarists to come out of the state of Texas, Hopkins' unique fingerpicking guitar style would alternate single-note leads with rhythm and bass guitar, adding percussive elements by slapping or tapping the body of his guitar.
