No doubt, Howlin' Wolf is off the chain... Wolf, Lightnin' and Robert Johnson... UNBEATABLE! One thing I can't stand is that "rock" blues people came out with once blues = paper. You know, the electric shizz with guys with pony-tails taking solos. The only electric I could stand was muddy waters that whole "mannish boy" steez. Anyone else feel this way?
