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 ...

In the Beginning

In the Beginning (1992) more music like this

by Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble

This 1980 live broadcast from Austin, TX captures a young Stevie Vaughan (he had yet to become Stevie Ray) blasting the hometown crowd with a style that was already very well-formed. With Chris Layton on drums and bassist Jackie Newhouse (Tommy Shannon would join up a year later), his basic sound was already in place, albeit still in need of some ...

Long as I Have You

Long as I Have You (1998) more music like this

by John Hammond

John Hammond's latest album marks a major departure in one respect -- for the first time in anyone's memory, he sings, but plays nothing on one of his records, while Little Charlie & the Nightcats, led by guitarist Charlie Baty, handle the guitars and everything else. The difference is very subtle, the playing maybe a little less flashy than ...

The Real Folk Blues/More Real Folk Blues

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 ...

The Complete Vanguard Recordings and More

The Complete Vanguard Recordings and More (2001) more music like this

by Siegel-Schwall Band

Is a three-CD set of the Siegel-Schwall Band -- including all four of their Vanguard albums (spanning 1966-1970) in their entirety, along with six previously unissued cuts -- too much to take at once? In a word, yes. If you're a blues-rock history nut, though -- and there must be some such listeners out there -- it is a handy collection that ...

Bag Full of Blues

Bag Full of Blues (1995) more music like this

by Willie "Big Eyes" Smith

The former Muddy Waters drummer Willie "Big Eyes" Smith turns in an enjoyable, but unremarkable, set of Chicago blues with Bag Full of Blues. Supported by Pinetop Perkins and Fabulous Thunderbirds harpist Kim Wilson, Smith runs through a set of mid-tempo blues, combining some competent originals with covers like "Baby Please Don't Go." There's not ...

The Best of Siegel Schwall

Where We Walked (1966-1970)

Where We Walked (1966-1970) (1991) more music like this

by Siegel Schwall Band

A very nice, fairly thorough, compilation that supersedes the old vinyl collection on several levels; nice mastering, better notes, and nicer selection. For a basic introduction to their sound, this one's hard to beat. Cub Koda, All Music Guide

Source Point/I'm Satisfied [Bonus Tracks]

Source Point/I'm Satisfied [Bonus Tracks] (2007) more music like this

by John Hammond

John Hammond's lifelong fascination with the country blues is well-known, and his passion for it is admirable, even if his approximation of it on his many records is at times a bit of an acquired taste. No one can doubt his fervor for the genre, though, and he has developed over the years into a much less affected vocalist, a solid slide player, ...

The Real Folk Blues

The Real Folk Blues (1966) more music like this

by Howlin' Wolf

This was originally released by Chess in 1966 to capitalize on the then-current folk music boom. The music, however -- a collection of Howlin' Wolf singles from 1956 to 1966 -- is full-blown electric, featuring a nice sampling of Wolf originals with a smattering of Willie Dixon tunes. Some of the man's best middle period work is aboard here; ...

His Best, Vol. 2 (1999) more music like this

by Howlin' Wolf

Where Chess' two-volume Muddy Waters anthology His Best was divided according to chronological guidelines, the Howlin' Wolf series of the same name follows a different pattern. His Best, Vol. 1 contained all of the Wolf's best-known songs -- as if the label never planned a sequel. Consequently, when it came time to assemble Vol. 2, they had two ...

Beginnings [w/Rod Stewart] (2004) more music like this

by Eric Clapton/Rod Stewart

Be aware that this double-disc set is exactly what it says it is, the start of the story when the plot hasn't yet been fully established. The first disc collects several of Eric Clapton's early Yardbirds sides, while the second disc is comprised of very early Rod Stewart performances, mostly with Long John Baldry, and while his vocal work is fine, ...

I Can Tell boasts an all-star backing band of rock & roll stars, featuring everyone from Bill Wyman to Robbie Robertson. John Hammond leads the band through a set of Chicago blues standards, reaching deep into the catalogs of Willie Dixon, Elmore James, Howlin' Wolf, and many others. Although the performances can occasionally sound too studied, ...

The Chess Box (1991) more music like this

by Howlin' Wolf

This three-CD box set currently rates as the best -- and most digestible -- overview of Howlin' Wolf's career. Disc one starts with the Memphis sides that eventually brought him to the label, including hits like "How Many More Years," but also compiling unissued sides that had previously only been available on vinyl bootlegs of dubious origin and ...

O.K. Ken? (1969) more music like this

by Chicken Shack

This was Chicken Shack's most popular album, making the British Top Ten. If you're looking for relics of the British Blues Boom, however, you'd be much better off with Ten Years After, to say nothing of legitimate artists such as Fleetwood Mac and John Mayall. British blues at its best could be exciting (if usually derivative), but it's difficult ...
