DESCRIPTION

In the mid 1960s, Chess Records released a series of 'The Real Folk Blues' albums that compiled singles from the careers of some of its greatest artists. Howlin' Wolf's 'The Real Folk Blues' combined singles recorded between 1956 and 1965 and is considered one of thebest compilations of the Chess series. The music on this record paints a daring portrait of Howlin' Wolf, presenting exceptional music that had not been presented in album format before. Classics on this record include 'Killing Floor', 'Tail Dragger' and 'Built for Comfort'. Bring home the sound of America's greatest blues label in high fidelity with the Chess Records Acoustic Sounds Series. These audiophile reissues of classic albums and compilations from the Chess discography are remastered from the original analog tapes and pressed on 180-gram vinyl at Quality Record Pressings (QRP). Each disc is packaged in tip-on gatefold sleeves printed on high-grade board.
