Although his song structures are sometimes bullshit, probably due to his heavy alcoholism, his exuberant songs seem to appeal directly to the listener's heart, as if he were throwing words around.  The dry, breezy tone of the guitars is truly tasteful, and there is a certain charm to this uninhibited, unprecedented, and unbounded spirit that is hard t o resist once you get into it.  This is the record for true blues fans, containing 12 songs that allow you to enjoy Hogg's style of singing as he pleases and as he sees fit, including another take of the hit \"Good Morning Little School Girl\" (originally recorded by Sonny Boy WIlliamson I). Piano by Hadda Brooks, who also released some records from Crown label and known as the queen of boogie, is also excellent and making this a record that is truly worth a listen.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"P-Vine","offers":[{"title":"Black LP","offer_id":50426072826187,"sku":"2057346","price":46.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/Sings_The_Blues_7dea9d57_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1726800030"},{"product_id":"the-texas-blues-of-smokey-hogg","title":"The Texas Blues of Smokey Hogg","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis is the 5th compilation of the prolific Smokey Hogg to be issued by Ace. It ties in with the first biography of the Texas bluesman from Guido van Rijn. It will appeal to both pre and post War blues aficionados, a period that Smokey’s career straddled. All of the tracks are new to CD with four previously unissued in any form. Among them is the alternative take of his Top 5 chart song ‘Good Mornin’ Little School Girl’ corrected for speed from its Crown LP issue.
