1	The Definitive Collection (2007) more music like this by Howlin' Wolf At six foot three and 270 pounds, Chester Burnett was a bear of a man, but his voice, rough and harsh as broken Delta glass, was what really gave him dimension. A powerful blues shouter out of the Charley Patton mold, Burnett (or Howlin' Wolf, as he came to be known) brought a feral fire to his vocals that made him sound like a gale force ... see all copies from $12.44! new only from $12.44!
2	His Best (1997) more music like this by Howlin' Wolf With the exception of a vinyl compilation issued in the early '80s (His Greatest Sides, Vol. 1), there'd never really ever been a single-disc Howlin' Wolf best-of package available. That all changed with this entry in MCA/Chess' 50th Anniversary series, a 20-track retrospective that serves as the perfect introduction to the man and his music, some ... see all copies from $12.87! new only from $17.64!
3	The London Howlin' Wolf Sessions [Bonus Tracks] (1971) more music like this by Howlin' Wolf Too many rock superstars. Bill Dahl, All Music Guide see all copies from $3.70! new only from $8.24!
4	Phenomenon (1974) more music like this by UFO Guitarist Michael Schenker's impact upon UFO's career cannot be overestimated. Before the German teenager's arrival (he was only 19 when he jumped ship from the Scorpions), the British rockers' early albums of half-baked space rock had been completely ignored everywhere but Japan. But with Schenker on board, the group's sound would receive a well ... see all copies from $11.75! new only from $11.75!
5	The London Howlin' Wolf Sessions [Deluxe Edition] (2003) more music like this by Howlin' Wolf see all copies from $26.99! new only from $26.99!
6	Legendary Blues Recordings: Howlin' Wolf (2001) more music like this by Howlin' Wolf see all copies from $3.86! new only from $3.86!
7	The Endless Jam (2004) more music like this by Schenker-Pattison Summit see all copies from $15.49! new only from $15.49!
8	The Real Folk Blues/More Real Folk Blues (2002) more music like this by Howlin' Wolf The Real Folk Blues series on Chess wasn't really folk, but titled that way, perhaps to gain the attention of young white listeners who had started to get turned on to the blues during the 1960s folk revival. And the Howlin' Wolf volumes in the series were not particularly more folk-oriented than his other Chess recordings, but more or less ... see all copies from $11.64! new only from $11.64!
9	Who Do You Love: The Anthology (2002) more music like this by Juicy Lucy Sanctuary's release of Who Do You Love: The Anthology by rootsy English hard rock and blues band Juicy Lucy, which contains all three of their three proper albums (Juicy Lucy, Lie Back and Enjoy It, and Get a Whiff of This) is proof positive that they'll reissue anything. Juicy Lucy did score with a remake of Bo Diddley's "Who Do You Love," which ... see all copies from $11.15! new only from $11.15!
10	Phenomenon [2000 Reissue] (2000) more music like this by UFO Guitarist Michael Schenker's impact upon UFO's career cannot be overestimated. Before the German teenager's arrival (he was only 19 when he jumped ship from the Scorpions), the British rockers' early albums of half-baked space rock had been completely ignored everywhere but Japan. But with Schenker on board, the group's sound would receive a well ... see all copies from $11.13! new only from $11.13!
11 view cover	The Chess Box (1989) more music like this by Willie Dixon This was the most unusual, and probably the most difficult to assemble of MCA's Chess Box series, mostly because of the unusual nature of Willie Dixon's contribution to Chess Records. To be sure, Dixon rates a place in the history of the label right alongside that of Muddy Waters, Howlin' Wolf, and Little Walter, but his role was more subtle than ... see all copies from $22.26! new only from $22.26!
12 view cover	A Tribute to Howlin' Wolf (1998) more music like this by Various Artists Unlike most tribute albums, Telarc's A Tribute to Howlin' Wolf plays it pretty close to the vest, rounding up members of Wolf's backing band -- including guitarist Hubert Sumlin, pianist Henry Gray and drummer Sam Lay -- to support the musicians paying tribute. As a result, the album has a more coherent sound than most tribute records, but that ... see all copies from $10.44! new only from $10.44!
13 view cover	Live! At the Sierra Nevada Brewery Big Room (2004) more music like this by Roy Rogers see all copies from $15.20! new only from $15.20!
14 view cover	Take Your Drunken Ass Home (2002) more music like this by Big Al Carson Everyone has thought it on occasion, when a drunk spoils the party for everyone else, and now Big Al Carson has written a song that expresses what everyone was thinking. "Take Your Drunken Ass Home" was written by Carson extemporaneously one night, as the blues musician and his band were repeatedly interrupted during their set by an inebriated ... see all copies from $14.88! new only from $14.88!
15 view cover	Nature of the Beast (1996) more music like this by Clarence Spady Let's see, a debut album on a respected but still second-tier label by a new generation bluesman from that fabled blues center of Scranton, Pennsylvania? Tell me that don't have journeyman and formula written all over it. But the nature of the beast that is Clarence Spady's debut album is that while you can't really zoom in on any one element that ... see all copies from $6.54! new only from $11.34!
16 view cover	Marvalous (1995) more music like this by Marva Wright see all copies from $4.25! new only from $10.11!
17 view cover	In Progress & in Motion: 1965-1998 (1998) more music like this by Taj Mahal For being a nearly omnipresent figure, Taj Mahal has never quite gotten the respect he's deserved. At the beginning of his career, he earned a significant amount of attention, but as the years passed, he had woven himself into the fabric of blues culture so well that his presence was taken for granted. That is why the 1998 release of In Progress & ... see all copies from $27.10! new only from $35.59!
18 view cover	Rhythm & Groove (1996) more music like this by Roy Rogers see all copies from $8.00! new only from $11.13!
19 view cover	The Collection (2000) more music like this by Howlin' Wolf Though there are countless others, this is a pretty neat little compilation of Howlin' Wolf's best moments from various points in his career. Containing 18 tracks for a budget price, many of the true classics are here, from "Evil" and "Smokestack Lightning" to "Spoonful" and "Back Door Man." There are also a coupe of surprises that don't usually ... see all copies from $11.75! new only from $11.75!
20 view cover	Blues Tracks (1992) more music like this by Pat Travers see all copies from $15.35! new only from $15.49!
21 view cover	Chicago Blues Live, Vol. 1 (1997) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $16.09! new only from $16.09!
22 view cover	Reheated (1989) more music like this by Canned Heat Originally released in Europe, this features a reconstituted Canned Heat lineup from 1988. Drummer Fito de la Parra and bassist Larry Taylor are the only two left over from the old days, but that doesn't seem much of a problem here, as top-flight guitar work from Junior Watson and James Thornbury drives these songs right along. There's a nice, ... see all copies from $2.78!
23 view cover	20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection: The Best of Howlin' Wolf (2003) more music like this by Howlin' Wolf While this 12-track collection of Howlin' Wolf's prime Chess material is classic electric blues music, it's a distinctly less worthy deal than the 20-track His Best. The latter anthology has the classic "How Many More Years," "Howlin' for My Darling," "Shake for Me," and "Three Hundred Pounds of Joy," none of which make it onto this briefer scoop; ... see all copies from $9.09! new only from $9.09!
24 view cover	Willie's Blues (1959) more music like this by Willie Dixon According to the original liner notes, this 1959 Willie Dixon session was cut during a two hour span in between flights. This certainly explains the relaxed, jam session feel of the recordings. Unfortunately, the songs come out sounding sluggish and stilted at times; this is partly due, no doubt, to the makeshift nature of the date, but also, more ... see all copies from $10.29! new only from $10.29!
25 view cover	The Blues Anthology (2005) more music like this by Howlin' Wolf see all copies from $9.97! new only from $9.97!
