  • Wow - it doesn't get much better than this! There is precious little live footage of the great Howlin' Wolf available so this release is a real stunner. Not only has not been out before but it captures Wolf in top form accompanied by a great band including the mind bending guitar work of Hubert Sumlin and the piano of Sunnyland Slim. Wolf howls the blues, prowls the stage like a caged animal and wails on the harmonica on classic Wolf favorites like "Highway 49/ How Many More Years/Killing Floor/Back Door Man/Decoration Day" and others. In between songs there are fascinating excerpts of an interview with Wolf and Sunnyland. Video and sound quality are excellent. A real treasure and a must have for blues lovers. - Frank Scott at Roots & Rhythm
    Titles Include: Highway 49, How Many More Years, Killing Floor, Howlin' For My Baby, Back Door Man, I Want To Have a Word With You, Smile At Me, Decoration Day and Sittin' On Top Of The World
    The Band: Howlin' Wolf, vocals and harmonica - Sunnyland Slim, piano - Hubert Sumlin, guitar - Randy Joe Fullerton, bass - S. P. Leary, drums

    Top on my bucket list. Going to Howlin' Wolf's grave near Chicago. Leave a big bouquet of flowers on the grave, then spend the afternoon under a shade tree, drinking great single barrel bourbon, smoking a fine cigar, and playing his music all day on what used be called a boom box. Heaven, and a tribute to the greatest Blues singer of all time!

      @@wildrover9650 my response to Led Zeppelin’s Lemon Song was about plagiarism. They totally changed the face of rock and roll with their 1st album. They could have given credit where credit was due and they still would have reaped a healthy sum of money. They plagiarized several songs.
      They absolutely made awesome covers and snippets but took all the glory for themselves.
