| Audio CD Description Chester Burnett's ferocious growl was a staple of Chicago's electric-blues heyday. This 20-song compilation ranges from his 1951 debut "Moanin' at Midnight" with Willie Johnson on guitar to 1964's "Killing Floor" with Buddy Guy on guitar. His scratchy, sawed-off vocal approach and his energetic harmonica grace original classics such as "How Many More Years" and "Smokestack Lightnin'." By 1960, he became, along with Muddy Waters, the foremost interpreter of Willie Dixon's songs, lending his coarse voice to legendary Dixon cuts such as "Wang Dang Doodle," "Back Door Man," "Spoonful," "The Red Rooster," and "I Ain't Superstitious." Wolf's style was based on primal raw power, and he ranks among the genre's most distinctive performers. |

Looking for a great first blues CD? This is the CD you should buy!
dont bother with this old washed up stuff 50 peepz decided that my revue was unhelpful. Therefore i have removed it.
MOANIN AT MIDNIGHT! this album is, again, great. yes, it's me again. i'm the kid who reviewed the chess box yesterday. i'm here to review every howlin' wolf album. they all have 5 stars. anyway, my favorite song on this is 'moanin at midnight.' i think it's one of my favorite songs ever. it's also on the chess box, but i think this version is better. the other good song on this is 'killing floor.' how can you not want to dance after hearing that?! i could hear those 2 songs over and over and never get tired of them. when i was a little kid i used to play the 'moanin at midnight' single over and over on my record player. but now i have it on CD! |
