Thank you for that. Howlin' Wolf was (and still is) one of the absolute greats. Unmatched as a blues artist. Massively influential. He cast a huge shadow over what came after him.
He insisted his musicians be sober when performing. He also provided healthcare for them. He was a true trend setter and leader.
Thank You for sharing his beautiful voice and soul music. He is one of my favorite blues singer. Another Great song is " Back Door Man" 😎☮️
He is magnificent isn't he, I absolutely love Howlin Wolf
Great reaction, Howlin Wolf is one of the best ever. A couple more songs from him you should check out are “Killin Floor” and “Backdoor Man”
Now that is what I call a real artist! These days we can use technology to hide the fact that someone is a mediocre musician, but not their lack of charisma or authenticity. When you see the real deal, like this, the difference is palpable.
At that time, they would have filmed this using massive cameras on trollys and loads of lighting generating a lot of heat, so that is probably why Howlin’ Wolf is sweating.
“Don’t say R & B like that, homey”!!! 😅😅😅
Love it…I thought the same thing!!👍🏻🤣🤣
So glad you've discovered Howlin' Wolf! He was amazing!
The Brit was pompous but at the time R&B wasn’t a common term. British youths brought a lot of Bluesmen back to prominence.I’m old enough that I saw a lot of the great Bluesmen in person. Lucky for me I had a habit of going places I shouldn’t be. Tremendous front man .
No one can touch the WOLF! Favorite
Been listenin' to this man since 1968 & this is the first time seeing this performance, thanks!
One of my all time favorite songs, nothing rocks like the blues!
the announcer didn't throw any shade, he was a fan, he was an admirer, he helped organise the entire tour package for these incredible black American artists to come to England and earn a living. Rhythm and Blues was a newer term, and a record selling combination of words, like Rock and Roll, or Heavy Metal. I wouldn't be surprised if the band themselves thought R&B as a rather weird new term or label for themselves. Its amusing hearing new polls, labels, or press coverage.
I love this guys music and my two year old grandchild wans to hear this over and over
I kind of discovered him around 7th or 8th grade but really I discovered him in my mid-twenties when I started playing in this really cool band and while they were older than me a little, none of us were alive in their absolute early Hey Day people like Howlin wolf. But we're around for a later part of, and I swear to God, Howlin Wolf was such a hero and an inspiration; the guy was so intense. And you mentioned his Christmas but unfortunately at the beginning you were looking down at your phone for his whole entire entrance which lasted like 10 seconds. His Christmas was on display the most right there.❤
This makes THREE really great tracks in the last couple weeks that the Grateful Dead always have a great time playing...Gimme Some Lovin', Johnny B. Goode, and Smokestack Lightning! ❤
Back in the 60s, we used to hang around outside a blues club in Chicago to hear Howlin Wolf. We were too young to get into the club, but they didn’t mind if we stood outside to enjoy the music. We loved Howlin Wolf! Great times. Thanks- great reaction!
Some people have argued that he laid the foundation for heavy metal. I can’t say they’re wrong. Certainly Les Zeppelin lifted *cough* his songs for their first two albums.
I was raised on the blues. Muddy Waters, Leadbelly, Sister Rosetta Tharp, Billie Holiday, Robert Johnson, John Lee Hooker, BB King. Fabulous music!!!
The Wolf , Muddy Waters and BB King : that is my holy trinity of the blues. I was lucky enough to see all three live. They defied time through their careers. Sooo good !
In 1964 European countries were just learning what R&B is
You are listening to one of the legends of the blues, Howlin' did some music with the Rolling Stones who loved the blues.
Nice, finally the real blues!
I love your description of his voice. Dead on. I heard of him through his famous "rocking chair" album, from when I was a young teen. To me Wolf is the ultimate blues singer. His harp and guitar chops are up in there too. The complete package. Thanks for sharing.
Be easy on that MC ... he's in England, way old school ... they probably didn't use R&B for 'rhythm and blues' ... maybe they called it just 'blues' ...or American Folk Music or something.
That was Chris Barber a jazz band leader who arranged many tours by blues artists and led to the British blues boom.
God bless Howling wolf ❤
Great review...The Wolf...amazing performer.....that time was great for blues artists...give Buddy Guy...Muddy Waters.....Sonny Boy Williamson....BB King....Albert King....Freddiie King.... Sister Rosetra Thorpe....more jazzy Ray Charles....great great artists that changed the course of Music....
Chris Barber was the man brought those artists to Britain.
He said whatever R&B it was new because blues was finished . Americans didn't want to be associated with blues and its history . So blues was becoming a mix of blues and dance . The uk interest is what brought about blues revival
He's not throwing shade at R&B, he's throwing shade at musical labels.
Absolutely correct.
as my grandfather used to always say before he passed "R&B used to mean ray charles and bb king, nowadays i got no clue what the hell it means, nowadays its a joke"
No he wasn’t throwing shade at labels; he was being disrespectful on purpose. This was a long long time ago in England and R&B was just becoming an influence on English music and young musicians. Some people didn’t like that influence.😊
Awesome! Thanks ❤️ Much Love!
The Wolf was all business and perfection. Listening to this day. He vocally churned such a groove.
But this presenter, not so much.
Twice songs he wrote got him out of prison!
Wolf was never in prison you fool.
You're thinking of Huddy Ledbetter -- Leadbelly -- not Howlin' Wolf.
Great reaction .. You have to remember this music (blues) was new across the pond .. It wasnt long after this the Blues to a hold of them .. Eric Clapton , The Rolling Stones and many more
IMO Howlin' Wolf and Son House had the best blues voices of all time.
Love that you did this!
Willie Dixon on bass. A legend in his own right.
And Hubert Sumlin on guitar, another blues legend.
Sure you won't want to meet this Holwin' Wolf roaming the streets at night ... 6 feet 3 inches (191 cm) tall and 275 pounds (125 kg) ... *hahaha
Do yourself a favour and check out more blues and blues artists! :)
The announcer was obviously thown out there without proper information
The best to ever do it.
👍🏻👍🏻
Archive special 📣🔥🔥🔥👏👏👏👏🙌🙌
Willie Dixon on Stand-up! do,"Howlin Wolf London sessions!' with English rocker's Killer album1970
Howling wolf with the Carlton shuffle…. Interesting
The music was HUMAN.
The Wolf!
ain't no autotune in 1964...
That’s Blues, straight out, not Bluegrass. Bluegrass is Country music that originated from the hill people of Appalachia and the Blue Ridge Mountains. Glad you have discovered Howlin’ Wolf, who was a musical genius and true Blues Legend
You should not be upset by how the pronounced R&B. He is speaking standard BBC British used in the 60s.
The cool fact is that Howlin' Wolf was huge in the Britain. He influenced The Rolling Stones and other of the British band of that time. It's a cool video when they played in an American TV-show where they had invited Howlin' Wolf, because they viewed him as one of the biggest in US. They ended telling the TV-show host to Shout Up! and let Howlin' Wolf play. So there you had The Rolling Stones watching like 5 school kids while he performed.
Another fun fact is that the British band was largely influenced by R&B musicians. And they found the segregation culture in the US strange and didn't like it. They could not understand that R&B musicians was not famous at all in the US. So when The Beatles did radio shows did they demand that they picked the music to be aired. For the first time was R&B played on radio stations to white Americans. The British invasion that started in 1963 opened up a new understanding of music in the US. Still strange that they needed to be tought this by some long haired British musicians
He had much prep time before hand to learn how to pronounce that word so I can't accept that as a legit excuse
Dude, Where the music breathes is profound.
You are so right about the lack of soul in the new music, new music is so over produced.
I don't think he was throwing shade at R&B. Back then R&B was just an industry catchall term applied to "black music." It didn't really have a defined meaning. I think that's what he meant by it.
Like I said to another person he had much prep time before hand to learn how to say it. That's not an legit excuse
@@MugnifyRTS bro that comment ain't talking about the pronunciation.
Aawooo
Know what, it's very interesting to watch African Americans reacting to this clip, and instantly take offence at Chris Barber's comment about R&B, what ever that is. Just stop and think about it for 1 second, they have invited Howlin Wolf to come 1000's of mile and play, the crowd are loose their shit when Wolf comes on stage, yet some how they still think that Chris Barber is taking a dig at R&B. I think for us to move to a better understanding of each other, everyone needs to try and understand other cultures, and not set out to get triggered when no offense is meant.
Back in those times they called Rock n Roll = n***er music and I learned that from watching an Elvis video. So, when I heard that it felt a Lil disrespectful and unprofessional to me.
You did not call blues harp a blue grass vibe???? Wolf was 6-4 300 pounds. Always packing. You did not mess with him.
He didn't shade R&B. He's saying "it shouldn't be separate from popular music" Before R&B it was known as the Black charts. Music was sold as Country for whites and blues for blacks, but it was the same music. The division was artificial and forced on the American public, while England had no such distinction (colour) in their music. You shouldn't be so quick to defend a label that was placed on black artists to limit their reach and appeal across white America.
That label still holds up til this day, honestly
@@MugnifyRTS I mean if I want to listen to Soul. I’ll have to look up R&B, but James Brown should have been on the same charts as Sonny & Cher. And Black Sabbath should have been on the same charts as War or Brothers Johnson :)
@@mitchd4929 Yep I do agree with that
This says all that needs to be said about the pathetic failure of Black History Month.
What do you mean?
try idolize you by smokestack lightnin
