O’s Notes: We immediately got In The Mood with Zakiya Hooker blues. She starts by telling us she’s paid her dues and she has a “Receipt to Sing The Blues”. We’ll honor that! The keys to making these winning recordings are great stories, Hooker’s rich vocals and great tone complemented by timely guitar work by several guitarists. Hooker entertains audiences all over the Americas on this recording starting in Argentina then hitting the southern circuit in Georgia and also California. This program goes beyond the blues. It is good entrainment all the way around!
