    • Source: 2 Bugs and a Roach

      • 2 Bugs and a Roach is an album by blues musician Earl Hooker released by the Arhoolie label in 1969. Jimmy Page wanted a Gibson EDS-1275 guitar, after seeing the sleeve.


      Reception



      The AllMusic review stated: "Earl Hooker's Two Bugs and a Roach is a varied lot, with vocals from Hooker, Andrew Odom, and Carey Bell in between the instrumentals, all cut in 1968. All in all, it's one of the must-haves in this artist's very small discography -- a nice representative sample from Chicago's unsung master of the electric guitar".
