No one could match Howlin’ Wolf for the singular ability to rock the house down to the foundation while simultaneously scaring its patrons out of its wits.

Chester Arthur Burnett, known as Howlin’ Wolf (after Chester A. Arthur, the 21st President of the United States), was one of the most influential blues musicians of all time. The raw power of Wolf’s fierce voice, combined with his physical presence, made him unforgettable. His influence stretched far beyond the realm of Chicago and the blues itself. Even famous british performers like The Rolling Stones or Eric Clapton merged Wolf’s blues with rock and roll in some of their songs. #music
