Howlin' Wolf - Moanin' In The Moonlight

Limited edition 180g clear vinyl pressing - the complete LP + 4 bonus tracks. Howlin' Wolf was one of the greatest characters and most electrifying performers in blues history. Presented here is his outstanding 1959 LP for Chess Records, 'Moanin' in the Moonlight'. One of the all-time cornerstones of the genre, it contains several of his early hits: How Many More Years, Smokestack Lightning, Forty Four, and Evil.

In 2005 Rolling Stone Magazine listed 'Moanin' in the Moonlight' #153 of The 500 Greatest Albums Of All Time.

Moanin' in the Moonlight was Howlin' Wolf's first collection of sides for the Chess label, packed with great tunes and untouchable performances by the man himself. Highly recommended for the uninitiated and a must for collectors. - AllMusic
