When legendary bluesman John Lee Hooker died in 2001, he was working on songs for what would be his last recording, Face to Face.
Hooker's daughter, Zakiya Hooker -- a blues musician in her own right -- finished producing the album after his death. In the wake of a new set of previously unreleased recordings from Hooker, Zakiya Hooker talks with NPR's Jennifer Ludden about her father's musical legacy.
