Howlin' Wolf - Wang Dang Doodle

Classic Mood Experience The best masterpieces ever recorded in the music history.
Chester Arthur Burnett (June 10, 1910 -- January 10, 1976), known as Howlin' Wolf, was an influential American blues singer, guitarist and harmonica player. He was born in West Point, Mississippi in an area now known as White Station.
With a booming voice and looming physical presence, Burnett is commonly ranked among the leading performers in electric blues; musician and critic Cub Koda declared, "no one could match Howlin' Wolf for the singular ability to rock the house down to the foundation while simultaneously scaring its patrons out of its wits." A number of songs written or popularized by Burnett—such as "Smokestack Lightnin'", "Back Door Man", "Killing Floor" and "Spoonful"—have become blues and blues rock standards.

130k people still know who Howlin' Wolf is. That's awesome

[stringdoc]

Hubert Sumlin's guitar on this song paved the way for all the best guitar work of the psychedelic era. Just raw, gritty and bad to the bone. Love it!

[blujazz]

Makes the hair stand up on my neck! Electrifying.
Blues goosebumps.

[ophergoodwin]

Willie Dixon wrote some genius songs for Howlin' Wolf and he did them all justice!

[cedricrust]

You can really hear where Captain Beefheart got his vocal inspirations from in this one

[claywright]

Hubert Sumlin breaking out windows with that stinging/ringing guitar.

[sprague]

"When the fish scent fill the air,  'll be snuff juice everywhere". It doesn't get any better than that!

[bajaro]

Ryan Coogler said this song helped inspire him to make the movie Sinners.

[jimmybuckets]

This version has the best mood, feel, color etc. of any recorded version of this song. But other versions have a steadier backbeat

[johnjeffire]

This is the Wolf's best take on this classic.

[DS-oiwl]

2:02 "...all night long" and then that ONE low guitar note in the phrase is genius.

I guess being able to drop a note in like that is what playing with the fingers instead of a pick can do.

[pietroanania]

Bass Guitar – Willie Dixon Drums – Fred Below Guitar – Fred Robinson*, Hubert Sumlin Piano – Otis Spann

[oldbeatpete]

He frightens me and I'm way over here, now!😮

[murdoch]

I gotta know more about Automatic Slim and Razor Toting Jim from the beginning of the song. They sound like some characters lol

[mariolewis]

Yesir he was the godfather of picking licks on the guitar

[ickyraytrojan]

I absolutely love this fuckin jam....good party tune for some crazy all nighter
