Howling Wolf | Big City Blues [180g Vinyl Album 5 Bonus Trks] LP

€25.00

This quintessential LP edition contains a compilation of Howlin’ Wolf sides cut for the Modern label in 1951-1952, including three songs that had previously appeared on singles for RPM (a subsidiary of Modern Records) and a number of outtakes not released on 45. These recordings were originally compiled by Crown Records on the LP Howling Wolf Sings the Blues (CLP 5240) in 1962 and later re-released with a different cover as Big City Blues and Original Folk Blues on several Crown parent labels, such as Custom, Kent and United Superior Records. There were also reissuesin Europe under the title Big City Blues by Goody/BYG Records (France) and Ember (UK). This material has long been a favorite among Wolf devotees. It is complemented on this collector’s edition by the previously mentioned RPM sides, as well as two Joe Hill Louis instrumentals that were originally included on the Howling Wolf Sings the Blues and Big City Blues LPs to bring the running time of the LP to an acceptable length.
