  • 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

Following taken from the liner notes; This DVD shows Howlin' Wolf prowling on stage at the first Washington D.C. Blues Festival held on November 06, 1970. Hear him moan his earth-shaking blues and watch his unforgettable stage antics and you'll see why Sam Phillips - who also discovered Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash and Jerry lee Lewis - called Howlin' Wolf his greatest discovery.The Band: Howlin' Wolf, vocals and harmonica - Sunnyland Slim, piano - Hubert Sumlin, guitar - Randy Joe Fullerton, bass - S.

    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!
