Hunter brought with him "the cream of the Motown label's session men, later known as the Funk Brothers": bassist James Jamerson, drummer Benny Benjamin, plus guitarist Larry Veeder, tenor saxophonist Hank Cosby, and baritone saxophonist Andrew "Mike" Terry. Detroit keyboardist Joe Hunter, who had previously worked with Hooker, was again enlisted for the recording session. However, with Vee-Jay, he usually recorded with a small backing band, as heard on the singles " Dimples", "I Love You Honey", and "No Shoes". Prior to recording for Vee-Jay Records, John Lee Hooker was primarily a solo performer or accompanied by a second guitarist, such as early collaborators Eddie Burns or Eddie Kirkland.
