Originally released on Chess 1762. One of the all-time classic blues riffs, and a clear indication of how Howlin' got his moniker. Howlin' Wolf has always been my favorite bluesman, and this performance shows all the reasons why. Into the jukebox it goes, not only cause I gotta hear it more often, but because I realized I hadn't put any blues in there yet...!
