Samuel John "Lightnin'" Hopkins was a Texas country bluesman of the highest caliber. In 2010, Rolling Stone magazine ranked him No.71 on its list of the 100 greatest guitarists of all time. He influenced a generation of blues and country musicians from Stevie Ray Vaughan to Hank Williams Jr., while being coined "the embodiment of the jazz-and-poetry spirit" by musicologist Robert McCormick.
His distinctive finger-style technique included playing bass, rhythm, lead, and percussion at the same time, tapping or slapping the body of his guitar for rhythmic accompaniment.
