generally having a great time, and gets up to dance as the show reaches
its climax with all the guests appearing onstage. In 1992, BBC
Television shot a documentary at the club featuring Bonnie Raitt, John
Lee Hooker and Ry Cooder. That same year, Hot Tuna recorded two live
albums at the Sweetwater. Since then, dozens of bands have recorded
their own -Live at the Sweetwater- performances.
Among
John Lees numerous albums, these live performances are one of the
documents of John Lee Hooker's career.
