Description

One of the greatest artists the blues ever produced, Howlin’ Wolf used to be a musical giant in each way. He stood six foot three, weighed almost three hundred pounds, wore size sixteen shoes, and poured out his darkest sorrows onstage in a voice that captured all of the pain of growing up black and poor in Jim Crow Mississippi. Half a century after his first hits, his sound still terrifies and inspires. Wolf started his career making a song with the first Delta blues stars, used to be present on the birth of rock ‘n’ roll in Memphis, and vied with rival Muddy Waters for the title of king of Chicago blues. This new and revised edition is filled with harrowing anecdotes about his early years, entertaining stories about his decades on the top, and never-before-seen photographs of the artist onstage. An very important volume for Wolf’s legions of fans, lovers of blues, and any individual interested within the history of American music.
