As one of Our Recommendations and Recommended Recordings, we recommend the following recordings by Magic Sam.

 

Here is a video of Magic Sam performing All Your Love and Lookin’ Good in Germany in 1969. He borrowed Earl Hooker’s guitar for this performance, which is why it says “Earl Hooker” on the guitar Magic Sam is playing. Earl Hooker was on the same tour.
