I watched 2 sets of The Wolf's show at Paul's Mall in Boston waiting to hear Smokestack Lightning but when I asked the band about it they said the Wold was done for the night. I went over and told the Wolf I'd been waiting since 1960 in Mississippi to see him sing that song live. He said, "Son, you waited long enough " and got back up on the stage and dedicated the song to me. He asked me to stay at his table and have a drink with him! What a great guy and a great musician!

I was about to type this same comment. But you’ve already got it dawlin. 😤

I'm a 46 year old black man and it's 2021 and I knew these kind of men. You didn't play around with them. Fearless men who grew up around so much murder that it's hard to fathom. Men like my grandfather. They carried around enormous pain. Every once in a while they'd forget themselves and tell you about their friend who was lynched when they were a teenager. Or they'd tell you about their sister who was raped by a white sheriff. Then they'd catch themselves and end the story as quickly as it started. They didn't want to pass along that pain to you. But you knew they'd kill a man if they hadn't already because that was survival. Hard drinking. Hard fighting. Women. And running from God. The way he's singing... that's church. That's gospel music stuff. We'd sing like that at church for an hour or two straight.

There's a story that Howlin Wolf sometimes had to pull over and beat up his own band. Most managers I tell that to said "Sometimes thats what you had to do". But apparantly he paid very well to his musicians. But anybody in that world knows musicians can be pretty messed up people. Mick Jagger pretty much ripped off his whole visual act. Apparantly nobody gave a show like howlin wolf, except maybe screaming jay:)

"Moaning at Midnight" is a biography that is a must-read--what a story. Wolf lived the blues, its joys, and definitely the sadnesses. He is an architect of rock and will never be displaced.

One of the most recognizable voices in Blues history.

So did my grandfather and father. On Saturdays and sometimes Sundays, our house was full of great blues songs. Howling Wolf, Muddy Waters were the favorites. My dad was also a guitar player, and at times, we would gather/sit around his feet while he played their songs. Brings back so many good memories. I still have their records, reels, eight tracks, and C.D.s. Sometimes, when I'm listening, a memory will fall in the form of a single teardrop.

In 1964 I was 2 years old…thanks to my father who loved the blues…

For the clueless people commenting this was not a BBC man but jazz great Chris Barber. One of the most influential people in altering people's tastes. Involved with Lonnie Donegan's Rock Island line which brought in the skiffle craze which led to the likes of John Lennon and others becoming involved in music. Then he brought a host of blues artists over here for the first time, Wolf, Sonny Terry, Brownie McGhee, Muddy Waters, Sister Rosette Tharpe who thanks to him played in front of bigger audiences, and white ones at that, for more money than they had ever seen. The reason he said rhythm and blues-whatever that is was people with no idea about it referring to bluees music as rhythm and blues as some sort of catch all. He died yesterday, aged 90. Was still touring until 2019. BBC man indeed. Some people should not comment on thi gs they know nothing about.

When I was a young man there was an older man named Mr. Peques. He loved listening to Wolf, Muddy Water, John Hooker and Etta James at the local cafe juke box. He would dance and had such a look of joy in his face and eyes. But what struck me the most was he had tears running down his face, not for sadness but for joy. People would laugh at him, but I couldn't. Finally, I ask why he cried and he said their music touched his soul. As I got older and truly listened to these blues legends, I too felt it in my soul. To me this is the blues and now at 69 years old I'm like Mr. Peguis listening to the blues brings me to tears, tears of joy. It's a beautiful feeling in my soul.

Racists! Anyone can get the blues. Why would the blues greats like bb king, howling wolf, muddy waters, etc play with clapton, the band, etc. Stop dividing. Like saying country music is the white man's music when Charley pride sings. Blues, country and jazz all have an overlap if you knew anything about music. Chuck.berry playing with the stones, John lennon, linda rondstadt, bands like the Allman Brothers with a black.drummer, look at the tedeschi trucks band today and get back with me

It’s so dope looking back at these black American artist, traveling to these other countries and sharing their art. This was such a crazy time, but they got to live a little bit, and this is just so special, considering how much history has happened between then and now.

Long as I am breathing Gonna Play Howlin Wolf

My Dad had me listening to Muddy Waters, Johnny Winter, and B.B. King since I was a little kid. I turned him on to Howlin Wolf, Buddy Guy, and Sonny+Brownie. I couldn't believe the dazed look in his eyes. Like, how have these soulful tunes evaded me my whole life. I love my dad and hot damn do I love the blues. Modern pop culture has NOTHING on the blues. ♥️

@@petehill8885 Actually, music preference is determined in part by intellectual status and fine arts interests. I was never one to sit idly by and be force fed the mass produced garbage that was made specifically for my generation. I don't listen to music the way that the average Joe does. I go out of my way to find genres upon subgenres and I will even force myself to listen to some of their tracks despite how mind numbingly mundane they really can be. In my own pursuit of knowledge, I can say without a doubt that there are intellectual ranks in music and their audience. Think of it like this, the person who watches Jersey Shore, Teen Mom, and Toddlers in Tiaras are not likely to be the same individuals that will watch The Universe, How it's Made, and Horrible Histories. In a similar fashion, it would be unlikely that a fan of Lil Pump, Taylor Swift, and Adelle are going to sit still long enough to listen to Beethoven, Mozart, Bach, or Tchaikovsky compositions. So, to reform your statement.. I would say that comparing genres IS an indication of intelligence. You just have to clear a huge barrier of ignorance so you can learn that better, higher quality music exists in places that mainstream media will keep you from looking.

I saw Arthur Chester Burnette about live about 2 months before he passed over - in a classy purpose built 1,500 seat auditorium. It was amazing how his presence filled that room. A national treasure.

The thing is; Howlin' Wolf was a nice guy, good to his kids, wife, and the musicians that worked for him. Like most music from classical to rap; it's all about attitude, and doesn't mean the artist is mean, or evil. It's in the domain of creativity, and the brain of the creator.

I grew up down the street from a man who was a sharecropper down south and came to Detroit towork in the auto industry during the 2nd World War. He would sit on his porch with a dobro and a corocidin bottle for a slide. Never played professionally but he was incredible. And a wonderful human being. That's how I learned the blues. He told me about Wolf, Muddy, Willie Dixon, Elmore James and the Chess Records lineup. Just amazing stuff.

Sometimes you listen to something, and you know there's something different and great about it, and you're gonna listen to it again and again.

What a unique talent-what a privilege to hear him all these years later.

The groove to this song is unreal you can not get away from the feel of it even if your not a dancer at very least you feel yourself moving to the beat what a true legend

That's Willie Dixon on bass, one of the greatest Blues songwriters of all time. Willie wrote most of the songs recorded by Howlin' Wolf and Muddy Waters.
