Rating: - Some very fine music here
This is a wonderful album and has a lot to recommend it. It's a builder, and the more you hear it, the more you realise is there. I would just suggest you get a copy, you won't be disappointed. Great stuff.

Rating: - Before "superstar sessions" had become a cliché...
...producer Norman Dayron asked guitarist Eric Clapton if he would like to do an album with Howlin' Wolf.

Rating: - An oustanding Deluxe Blues reissue in all ways
The original LP when it came out in the early 1970s made it largely on the back of the various UK superstars who particpiated (Clapton, Watts, Wyman, and an uncredited Starr together with Wolf and his long time guitarist Hubert Sumlin - Winwood per the notes having been added later and not very succesfully it seems).

Rating: - Essential Sessions CD
Included many top session musicans for 'the voice' of the 50s.

Featuring most of his famous hits (where is smokestack lightning? - actually, i dont think he had recorded it buy the time of these recordings)

I doubt there has been a better voice in the history of blues to really scream out those desperate lyrics - except maybe screaming jay hawkins who was let down by his stupid pig type noises.

Standout is 'Killing Floor' - brilliant riff.
