Vinyl, LP, Compilation, Limited Edition, Remastered

Hokum was a style showing a completely different side to the blues that was upbeat, salacious and light hearted. With it’s use of clever and suggestive innuendo, this risqué style was extremely popular in the late 1920s and early 1930s and it’s influence has remained part of the blues ever since.
