The Wolf was born Chester Arthur Burnett on this day in 1910. Here's a look at what I have from the Howlin' Wolf. If you would like to contact me, please feel free to do so at: chrisfriend70@gmail.com

Hello Chris; Like the hat & t-shirt appropriate for the video. We own many LP's by the Wolf including the book. Great artist who wrote many classic blues numbers. Good video informative & well explained. Take care, Tina & Pat!!~

Excellent collection and great info, Chris. I first heard Howlin' Wolf on a CD called '20 R&B Classics that Inspired The Rolling Stones' (or something like that), which I picked up for about two pounds in 1993. It had Little Red Rooster and Smokestack Lightning on it. I have a couple of good CD comps but alas nothing on vinyl as yet. I remember reading that he was a great reader and scholar (he looked that way with those glasses!), and often used to be seen reading books away from the bandstand. Btw, one of my biggest musical regrets is not going to see Hubert Sumlin when he came to play at a small pub in Leeds in about 2001. Can't believe I missed that.

Thank you very much James. My Dad is a Wolf fan, so I remember hearing his records as a kid... his voice frightened me back then. I didn't really start buying his albums for myself until I was in my late teens... mostly cassettes at that point. I wish I had the opportunity to see The Wolf live before he passed. Seeing Hubert would have been outstanding as well! Have a great weekend.

Thanks a lot Stephen. Sounds like you have a pretty epic Wolf collection as well. I like that description of his voice... I agree; spot on. Sam Phillips said that Howlin' Wolf was the best singer he ever heard... pretty high praise. Have a good one.

I definitely need more Wolf in my collection. Considering he’s my favorite I’m really short on his albums, only have 5 and a couple are second rate represses. Lucky enough to have seen the great man at the 1970 Ann Arbor Blues Festival. Great video and information.

Hi Jonathan. One can never have too much Wolf in the collection. I'm still missing so many LP's on vinyl... 4 or 5 I think. It never ends, does it? Have a great week.

That is a lot of Howlin Wolf. I have 4 albums by him, one which you didn’t show.
