The songs on this set, dating from 1951 to 1961, sum up the first half of Wolf’s recording career with Chess, a period when he
sung mostly
self-penned compositions.
"
Smokestack Lightnin’
"
is probably the most covered
and
"
How Many More Years
"
was
the first and most successful
of four songs Wolf placed on the Billboard national R&B charts in the 1950s.
Though he died in 1976, his spirit lives on – not only at the annual Howlin’ Wolf Memorial
Blues Festival held in
Mississippi, but also in
the music that features
on this superb 2 LP set
.
