"Spoonful" is a blues song written by Willie Dixon and first recorded in 1960 by Howlin' Wolf. Called "a stark and haunting work", it is one of Dixon's best known and most interpreted songs. Etta James and Harvey Fuqua had a pop and R&B record chart hit with their duet cover of "Spoonful" in 1961 and it was popularized in the late 1960s by the British rock group Cream.

“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

This week's #TuneTuesday theme is #WhatShallWeDrink. For some reason, this was the first song that came into my mind (no, I don't drink gasoline!):
Howlin' Wolf: I Asked For Water (She Gave Me Gasoline) (1956)

March 1956 saw the release of Howlin’ Wolf's 'Smokestack Lightnin'.
Since then, it has become a blues standard, winning a Grammy Hall of Fame Award in 1999 in recognition of its historical significance as an indelible part of the American songwriting canon.
"Not so much a song as a mood: insubstantial as a smoke ring melodically and lyrically, yet gigantic as a gathering storm in rhythm and power."
"He did not just sing the blues; he embodied them.
He was a howling wolf!" -

HOWLIN’ WOLF
Red Rooster
1982 Italy pressingTuesday morning done right, with a little Howlin’ Wolf and some apple pancakes.
One of about 150 different HW records I own, most of them having the same set of songs on them. 😂
Same with my LEADBELLY records.If I just see one with a different cover, or even a slight variance of track sequencing, I’ll buy it.
Can’t turn down buying ANY kind of album by those two gentlemen.
With Howlin Wolf, if it’s got “Killing Floor” or “Red Rooster” on it, it makes it automatic.
This has both. 😂#vinyl #vinylrecords #vinylcommunity #vinylcollection #retro #vintage #art #music #blues #HowlinWolf

This week's #TuneTuesday theme is #AnimalCalls. Howlin' Wolf is a rather obvious choice - his first record was one of the greatest he ever did:
Howlin' Wolf: Moanin' At Midnight (1951)

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
