John Lee Hooker | Boom Boom | LIVE (1962)

Boom Boom" is a song written by American blues singer and guitarist John Lee Hooker and recorded in 1961.

Although it became a blues standard, music critic Charles Shaar Murray calls it "the greatest pop song he ever wrote".


"Boom Boom" was both an American R&B and pop chart success in 1962 and a UK top-twenty hit in 1992.


The song is one of Hooker's most identifiable and enduring songs and "among the tunes that every band on the [early 1960s UK] R&B circuit simply had to play".


It has been recorded by numerous blues and other artists, including a 1965 North American hit by the Animals.
