“Killing Floor” was a 1964 hit single by blues legend Howlin’ Wolf, and appears on this 1972 compilation Chester Burnett aka Howlin’ Wolf. Led Zeppelin used it as the basis for “The Lemon Song” and credited Burnett, Howlin’ Wolf’s real name. #howlinwolf #chicagoblues #vinyl

MUDDY WATERS
The Best of Muddy Waters
2025 Europe Ltd. Edition reissueHaving a hard time getting up and going this morning, and I suppose this isn’t helping. 😂
Saw this in the used bin the other day (who the hell disposes of Muddy Waters records?!?!), and I couldn’t resist.
Ten years ago, I really didn’t own that many blues records. However, over the last decade I have really started to accumulate a LOT of them. Other than Lightnin’ Hopkins, Leadbelly, and John Lee Hooker, there’s no artist I have more records of than Muddy.
This collection SOUNDS really good. I was very pleasantly surprised by that. It’s borderline audiophile to my ears, and I wish all blues reissues took the same aural care as this one does.
Sail on, my little honey bee.
Sail on.#vinyl #vinylrecords #vinylcommunity #vinylcollection #retro #vintage #art #music #blues #MuddyWaters #Chicago #chicagoblues

Jimmy Reed - "Bright Lights Big City" (1961)
Another cool album my parents played a lot when I was a child. These things tend to stay with you for the rest of your life.

#MuddyWaters (1913- 1983)
Le blues a eu un bébé et ils l’ont appelé rock and roll.

My pick for this week's #MusicWomenWednesday is a video from the 1967 American Folk and Blues Festival. This is Koko Taylor doing a live version of her great hit from the previous year, backed by a stellar group of musicians including Little Walter on harmonica, Hound Dog Taylor on guitar, Dillard Crume on bass and Odie Payne on drums.
Koko Taylor: Wang Dang Doodle (1967)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qyUHkY0K8HEThis line-up even visited Finland, playing a show at Kulttuuritalo in Helsinki on October 12, 1967.

HOWLIN’ WOLF
Evil
1977 U.S. reissueA little Chester Burnett on a wet, raw nasty day outside.
I knew on my ride home today that this was what I was going to listen to once I got home.
There’s never a bad time for HOWLIN WOLF, but today is DEFINITELY a good time for Howlin Wolf.
One of MANY records of his I have, and there’s no bad or underwhelming song on any of em.
Dude was a master, and one of the ten most important artists in the history of popular music.
And no, I did not stutter.#vinyl #vinylrecords #vinylcollection #art #music #vinylcommunity #retro #vintage #blues #HowlinWolf #Chicago #chicagoblues #deltablues

HOWLIN’ WOLF
The Real Folk Blues
1966 U.S. MONO pressingKind of a quiet, pensive Tuesday night ‘round these parts. So I’ve poured myself some Macallan and have called on The Wolf.
This is one of the more valuable records in my collection, as clean as it was when it was first opened (not by me) in 1966.
One of many Howlin’ Wolf records in my collection, and probably my favorite.
There’s just something about throwing this on, and hearing “Killing Floor” right after the needle drops. One of the most vicious and nasty blues songs ever.All these songs were originally released as singles, and were then gathered for this compilation in ‘66.
Twelve classics in just over 32 minutes, it’s one of the more relentlessly intense collections of the genre by any artist.
Also, bonus points for the appearances of Buddy Guy, Otis Spann and Willie Dixon.#vinyl #vinylrecords #vinylcollection #art #music #vinylcommunity #retro #vintage #blues #chicagoblues #HowlinWolf

Junior Wells' Chicago Blues Band with Buddy Guy - Hoodoo Man Blues
What can you say about this classic?
One fun fact - Buddy Guy was originally given a pseudonym on this LP ("Friendly Chap") because Delmark (records) thought he was under contract to Chess, and they didn't want to ask/pay...

MUDDY WATERS
The Best Of Muddy Waters
1958 Canada MONO CompilationOne slayer after another, and one of the most legendary musicians ever.
If you’re making a list of artists who are responsible for #rocknroll as we know it, your list is null and void if Muddy’s name isn’t on it.
That is a fact that cannot be argued.
Don’t embarrass yourself.Long live McKinley Morganfield.

I didnt need to think for long, definitely looking forward to, later this year, attend a concert by #SunRaArkestra and it’s magical and experimental music from space. Now led by 99 year old (!) bandleader #MarshallAllen, after the passing away of Sun Ra himself, 30 years ago, in 1993. After going to see #Blondie last month, this sure is a next level challenge.

Chicago blues guitarist Magic Sam was born today in 1937. He was a monstrously good player, even when he was shredding on someone else's guitar. Sadly, Magic Sam died in 1969 just a few months after this clip was shot.

My vanity project ,telling stories about each of my #VinylRecords continues. This is a 2022 re-release of a 1991 classic, Buddy Guy's "Damn Right I've Got The Blues," with a quality cover and blue #ColoredVinyl. Even if you're not a #blues fan, the first two tracks should knock you on the floor, and then think about whether you're a blues fan or not, hmm? I love Buddy Guy so much.

Getting back to my project of cataloging all my #vinyl with a Buddy Guy collection I got just a year ago. With two more records picked up in 2022, it was once again the Year of Buddy Guy for me.

#ChicagoBlues songs about being a man 🧵
"I Am A Man" by Bo Diddley
"All you pretty women
Stand in line
I can make love to you baby
In an hour's time
I'm a man
Spelled M-A-N"
