Our Take

Album Review: HOWLIN WOLF - The Best Of

If there's one thing that Howlin Wolf knows how to do, it's howl. And let me tell you, this album is chock full of howls. From the moment you press play, you'll be transported to a smokey dive bar in Chicago, with Wolf's gravelly voice filling the room like a thick fog.

The Best Of album is a collection of some of Wolf's greatest hits, from "Smokestack Lightnin'" to "Spoonful" to "Killing Floor." Each track is a masterclass in blues music, with Wolf's distinctive guitar playing and raw, emotive vocals on full display.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "Little Red Rooster," a slow-burning blues number that showcases Wolf's ability to tell a story with his voice alone. His soulful delivery will send shivers down your spine, guaranteed.

But it's not all doom and gloom on The Best Of. Tracks like "Shake for Me" and "Back Door Man" will have you tapping your feet and shaking your hips in no time. Wolf's infectious energy is impossible to resist, and before you know it, you'll be howling along with him.

Overall, The Best Of is a testament to Howlin Wolf's status as a true legend of the blues. His music is timeless, his voice is unforgettable, and his legacy will live on forever. So pour yourself a glass of whiskey, sit back, and let Howlin Wolf take you on a journey through the heart of the blues. You won't regret it.
