About This Song
About "Kiddio" by John Lee Hooker
Hooker's 'Kiddio' saunters with a limber, almost playful blues sway, his guitar a low, knowing chuckle. The title evokes a child's nickname, but the groove carries a grown-up weariness—a calm surface rippling with unspoken longing, captured in that remastered, close-mic'd warmth.
