Release Notes:

MCA's three-disc-set celebration of Howlin' Wolf (Chester Burnett)
offers seventy-one tracks, including all his famous songs and
nineteen obscurities. Sequenced chronologically, the first disc is
given over mostly to his nastily ominous Memphis years (1951-54);
the second covers the more controlled devilry of his storied Chess
sessions in Chicago (195~63); the last grouping of Chess singles
and hitherto unreleased tunes takes us close to the end of his
mortal reign (196~73). Nary a lame lupine song anywhere. The
enclosed thirty-two-page booklet, with its two essays, splendid
photographs, and more, is as carefully assembled as the material.
Another feather in the plume of MCA producer Andy McKaie. -- ⌐
