What kind of a man gets a nickname like 'Howlin' Wolf'? Well, a three hundred pound giant with a voice so powerful it sounds as if it could knock down buildings fits the brief! Wolf dominated the post-war Chicago blues scene in every way. Enjoy some of his most ferocious and emotionally intense work on this outstanding Rough Guide, which has been painstakingly re-mastered and restored to world class sound quality.

The Rough Guide to Blues Legends: Howlin' Wolf features Howlin' Wolf's best and baddest electric blues. The sound quality is premium, and each track has been carefully re-mastered to illuminate Wolf's growling voice, hollering harmonica and gutsy guitar in never before heard definition. The main disc traverses the Wolf's biggest hits from 'Smokestack Lightning' to 'How Many More Years' and a lot more in between.
