Hopkins, Lightnin' -& Billy Bizor-
Wake Up The Dead! (2cd)
Lightnin' Hopkins woke up The Dead when he played San Francisco in the 1960s, and his song 'Wake Up The Dead' is the
centerpiece of this two-and-a-half-hour journey into the electrified world of Texas blues. Accompanying Lightnin' is his
long time harmonica player, Billy Bizor. While Lightnin' had a prolific recording career, Bizor's stature is relatively
obscure due to the lack of solo recordings he released during his lifetime. Fortunately, 'Wake Up The Dead' seeks to
rectify that situation by including the complete June 17, 1968 session with Lightnin' and Bizor, plus all of Bizors'
1969 solo recordings. As an added bonus, the rest of the April 11, 1969 session that didn't fit onto Lightnin's
'Shootin' Fire' album is included as well.
