“Boom Boom” remains one of John Lee Hooker’s most recognizable hits. John Lee Hooker came up with the song during a long run at Detroit’s Apex Bar. Known for showing up late, he was often teased by the bartender, Luilla, who’d greet him with, “Boom boom, you’re late again.” One night she joked, “Boom boom, I’m gonna shoot you down,” and the phrase stuck. Thank God it did. #JohnLeeHooker

John Lee Hooker’s famous scene in ‘The Blues Brothers’ was filmed on Maxwell Street, the birthplace of Chicago Blues. Muddy Waters was set to play, but fell ill. At the last minute, backed by Muddy’s band, John Landis substituted Hooker and the song, ‘Boom, Boom, Boom.’ 💣💥

The original ‘Blues Brother’ with the BLUES BROTHERS. In 1980, John Lee Hooker appeared in THE BLUES BROTHERS as a street musician known as “Street Slim.” In this scene, the Hook performed his classic track “Boom Boom” on Chicago’s Maxwell Street. Backed by a small band, the performance stands as one of the film’s most authentic musical moments. #JohnLeeHooker
