Howlin' Wolf/Moanin' in the Moonlight

Howlin' Wolf/Moanin' in the Moonlight (1986) more music like this

by Howlin' Wolf

Howlin' Wolf's first and second Chess albums are essential listening of the highest order. They were compiled -- as were all early blues albums -- from various single sessions (not necessarily a bad thing, either), and blues fans will probably debate endlessly about which of the two albums is the perfect introduction to his music. But this CD ...

Little Feat

Little Feat (1971) more music like this

by Little Feat

It sold poorly (around 11,000 copies) and the band never cut anything like it again, but Little Feat's eponymous debut isn't just one of their finest records, it's one of the great lost rock & roll albums. Even dedicated fans tend to overlook the album, largely because it's the polar opposite of the subtly intricate, funky rhythm & roll that made ...

The Definitive Collection

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 ...

His Best

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 ...

Hoy-Hoy!

Hoy-Hoy! (1981) more music like this

by Little Feat

Perhaps realizing that Down on the Farm wasn't the proper swan song for Little Feat, the group persuaded Warner Brothers to release a compilation of rarities and overlooked tracks as a swan song and farewell to fans. Filled with live performances, obscurities, album tracks, and a new song apiece from Bill Payne and Paul Barrere, Hoy Hoy is a bit ...

Live at the Old Absinthe House Bar, Vol. 2: Saturday

Live at the Old Absinthe House Bar, Vol. 2: Saturday (1998) more music like this

by Bryan Lee

From the beginning of the opening cut, "Think," and throughout the entire show on this live CD, blues guitarist and singer Bryan Lee puts on an explosive performance full of fire and passion. Lee talks enthusiastically to the audience, giving them the background to many of the songs before shouting out his vocals, but his intense guitar flights ...

The Collection

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 ...

Well Well Well (2001) more music like this

by R.L. Burnside

At first glance, this archival collection may appear to be too much of a hodgepodge. The recording dates range from 1986 to 1993; the locations range from a large theater in The Hague to a shotgun house in New Orleans; the lineups range from solo performances by Burnside to trio sessions with Jon Morris and Calvin Jackson; and the songs range from ...

I Know You

I Know You (1998) more music like this

by Hubert Sumlin

This is arguably the first musically indispensable album that Hubert Sumlin has done since Howlin' Wolf died some 23 years ago. That isn't to say that he hasn't done some good albums before this, just that I Know You has a degree of urgency, coupled with remarkable ease, that makes it a real delight. The result is a record that compares very ...

Big John's Boogie (1974) more music like this

by Big John Wrencher

This set by the obscure yet legendary one-armed harmonica player and singer Big John Wrencher is one of the great overlooked blues classics of the 1970s. Recorded in England in 1975 (with two bonus tracks from 1974) with Eddie "Playboy" Taylor's band, the Blueshounds, it is the only recording in Wrencher's small catalog that begins to capture the ...

The Memphis Days: Definitive Edition, Vol. 2 (1990) more music like this

by Howlin' Wolf

The second volume in this series collects up all the known Memphis recordings that were either issued or originally offered to Chess. As such, it stands as a marvelous collection of Wolf's early 78s for that label. But what truly puts it over is the added bonus of a newly discovered acetate featuring several unissued versions of "How Many More ...

Wolf Is at Your Door (1992) more music like this

by Howlin' Wolf

Although his tenure with Willie Dixon at Chess Studios is what made him a star, Howlin' Wolf's short-lived association with Ike Turner, Sam Phillips, and Sun Studios in the early '50s produced some of the most powerful and raucous music ever recorded. (Muddy Waters' first electric recordings are downright tame in comparison.) The Wolf Is at Your ...

1951-1952 (2003) more music like this

by Howlin' Wolf

While there are numerous Howlin' Wolf compilations and anthologies available that trace his extraordinary career, the 25-track 1951-1952 compilation from the French Classics label focuses on Wolf's crucial early Memphis sessions. Recorded for Sam Phillips in 1951 and 1952 prior to Wolf's move to Chicago, each track is raw, passionate, and ...

3744 James Road (2006) more music like this

by The Groundhogs

The Groundhogs were an at-times better than average 1960s British blues band led by T.S. McPhee, whose Jack Bruce-like vocals and raggedly aggressive guitar style made the group sound at times like a looser version of Cream. This two-disc set, divided into studio and live recordings, makes a pretty solid introduction to the band. The studio disc ...

A Proper Introduction to Howlin' Wolf: Memphis Days (2004) more music like this

The single disc, 25-track Proper Introduction to Howlin' Wolf anthology traces, in condensed form, Howlin' Wolf's seminal recordings at Sun Studios in Memphis. While other compilations have focused on exhaustively presenting all of the recordings Wolf did for Sun and Chess, and other single discs have picked one label or the other, Proper has ...

Live at the Golden Bear (1969) more music like this

by Junior Wells

The swaggering harpman took his act on the road to Huntington Beach, CA to do this live set with his touring quartet of the moment. Virtually nothing but blues and soul standards that show his wide stylistic range -- alongside tunes by Muddy Waters, both Sonny Boys and the Wolf resides an impassioned reading of James Brown's "Please, Please, ...

Stoned Alchemy (1989) more music like this

by Various Artists

Here's an interesting idea for a collection: the original versions of 27 R&B songs that were covered by the Rolling Stones in the studio or on stage. This is more than just a clever gimmick for a compilation, however. In addition to providing insight into the development of the Rolling Stones' music, this is also a first-rate collection of classic ...
