It Serve You Right to Suffer (Stereo)

~ Release by John Lee Hooker (see all versions of this release, 10 available)

Annotation

Reissued a number of times, possibly under Beat Goes On 335 (CD 2002), Universal Special Products 12025 (CD 1999), and/or MCA 18186 (1992 CD).
Verve apparently somehow forgot about this (fine) record.
Note that the first pressings appear to be spelled "It Serve", though late sleeves use (the correct) "It Serves".
