Our Take

Howlin' Wolf's debut album, "Moanin' in the Moonlight," is a raucous, gut-wrenching masterpiece that defies categorisation. This collection of blues tracks, recorded in the early 1950s, remains as raw and powerful today as it was upon its release. With his gravelly voice and distinctive howls, Howlin' Wolf delivers each song with an intensity that is impossible to ignore. The opening track, "Moanin' at Midnight," sets the tone for the rest of the album, with its driving rhythm and haunting lyrics. As the album progresses, tracks like "Smokestack Lightnin'" and "Evil" showcase Howlin' Wolf's versatility as a performer, switching effortlessly between soulful ballads and foot-stomping blues. The production on "Moanin' in the Moonlight" is sparse but effective, allowing Howlin' Wolf's vocals and guitar playing to take centre stage. The result is an album that feels timeless and authentic, capturing the essence of the blues in its purest form. Overall, "Moanin' in the Moonlight" is a must-listen for any music fan, whether you're a die-hard blues aficionado or just looking to expand your musical horizons. Howlin' Wolf's passion and talent shine through on every track, making this album a true classic in every sense of the word. Howlin' Wolf may be howlin' in the moonlight, but his music will be howlin' in your ears for years to come.
