Smith - guitar Eddie Burns - harmonica Boogie Woogie Red, Joe Woods - piano Bernie Besman - organ Curtis Fuller, Tom Whitehead, Jimmy Turner - drums unknown - xylophone Jimmy Miller - trumpet Johnny Hooks - tenor saxophone  Review by Steve Leggett, allmusic.com: This collection centers on the prolific John Lee Hooker's recordings for Bernie Besman at United Sound Studios in Detroit between 1948 and 1952 (these were leased to Modern Records in Los Angeles, although Besman did release some of them on his own Sensation Records imprint). There are countless compilations of Hooker material on the market, issued by a variety of labels under assorted different titles, but you really can't go wrong with this guy -- he always delivered what he was supposed to deliver with no frills and no fuss.
