Lightnin’ Hopkins
Lightnin’ Hopkins
Centerville, USBlues
256.5m all-time streams (9 Jul '26)
Sam Hopkins was a Texas country bluesman of the highest caliber whose career began in the 1920s and stretched all the way into the 1980s.
Along the way, Hopkins watched the genre change remarkably, but he never appreciably altered his mournful Lone Star sound, which translated onto both acoustic and electric guitar.
