Killing Floor performed by Howlin' Wolf

Wow - it doesn't get much better than this! There is precious little live footage of the great Howlin' Wolf available so this release is a real stunner. Not only has not been out before but it captures Wolf in top form accompanied by a great band including the mind bending guitar work of Hubert Sumlin and the piano of Sunnyland Slim. Wolf howls the blues, prowls the stage like a caged animal and wails on the harmonica on classic Wolf favorites like "Highway 49/ How Many More Years/Killing Floor/Back Door Man/Decoration Day" and others. In between songs there are fascinating excerpts of an interview with Wolf and Sunnyland. Video and sound quality are excellent. A real treasure and a must have for blues lovers. - Frank Scott at Roots & Rhythm
Titles Include: Highway 49, How Many More Years, Killing Floor, Howlin' For My Baby, Back Door Man, I Want To Have a Word With You, Smile At Me, Decoration Day and Sittin' On Top Of The World
The Band: Howlin' Wolf, vocals and harmonica - Sunnyland Slim, piano - Hubert Sumlin, guitar - Randy Joe Fullerton, bass - S. P. Leary, drums

Top on my bucket list. Going to Howlin' Wolf's grave near Chicago. Leave a big bouquet of flowers on the grave, then spend the afternoon under a shade tree, drinking great single barrel bourbon, smoking a fine cigar, and playing his music all day on what used be called a boom box. Heaven, and a tribute to the greatest Blues singer of all time!

Cringe.How cliche.

[@bluzizalright]

The Wolf and Hubert on guitar - Impossibly great combination.

[@bahadiraydinonat3326]

Great choice by Slash to honor him and let him be known by younger generations.

[@francoisfortin5826]

To hear Brian Johnson (AC/DC and Steven Tyler) is truly awesome and insane on this great song I had no idea existed before Slash redid it!!!!!!!!

[@jeffrytrefry5425]

Trust me on this. The Wolf wouldn't have let anyone even think about harming the musical genius Hubert Sumlin and everybody knew that!

[@jeffreymccomas3281]

This is the first time I've seen this video but I've been a Wolf fan for ever it was hard during the hair band era to be a blues man but these old blues still linger and I'm so glad to hear my grandkids listening to Killing floor it may be a Slash, Brian Johnson and Steven Tyler cover but the grandkids are still hearing what the Wolf put down oh and the great great Hubert Sumlin too

[@mattbod]

This guy was absolutely brilliant: great songwriter, guitarist, singer and entertainer. I wish I was around in his time to hear him, Sonny Boy and Muddy Waters.

[@South3West77]

The man was somthin'else. Been enjoying his work for many decades. He has some work with another Great, muddy waters. 2 Greats.

[@smoothoperator7023]

And the great Willie Dixon who wrote most of those great songs.

[@paige1477]

Hubert is a guitar legend ❤❤

[@jeffrytrefry5425]

The Wolf, in no uncertain terms, told Muddy to stay away from the ultra talented, hit maker Hubert Sumlin

When he launches into that first "SHOULD'VE QUIT YOU," I get what Sam Philips meant when he said "This is where the soul of man never dies."

[@freedomisntfree2089]

Wolf was a good guy, wanted the best, but sometimes I think he intimidated poor young Hubert lol.

[@LookWhatTheCatDraggedIn]

Led Zeppelin; The Lemon Song... Arc Music, who owned the rights to Howlin' Wolf's music, sued Led Zeppelin for copyright infringement.

[@goransebastijanovic7524]

led zeppelin before led zeppelin

[@henrybayliss458]

Crap performance - worst live perf of Killing floor . The Wolf was obviously out of it & way way past his best - showing early signs of dementia - what a doggone shame when I remember his mastery & genius 30 yrs earlier!🤥🤥
