The Best of Friends celebrates the collaborations and friendships between John Lee Hooker and the musicians he has worked with over the past decade. Together they created the landmark and award-winning albums The Healer (1989), Mr. Lucky (1991), Boom Boom (1993), Chill Out (1995) and Don't Look Back (1997). In addition to highlighted tracks from these five albums, The Best Of Friends features three new tracks recorded especially for this release with Ry Cooder, Ben Harper and Charlie Musselwhite and some other very special friends. Not only is every collaboration the result of friendship and mutual admiration, but every song has a story, as does the album itself and the period it celebrates.
