Negative Positive
Title: One of the all time greats
Review: Very little Howlin' Wolf video exists, making this a must-see for all blues fans. The back-up band (including Hubert Sumlin and Sunnyland Slim) is awesome, and Wolf puts on an amazing performance on vocals and harmonica, having total command of the stage. There are a couple of drawbacks - the audio quality is uneven, with the piano inaudible in certain spots, and Wolf seems a little unfocused - he talks his way through parts of the concert instead of singing. Also there are some unfortunate edits where they cut to interviews in the middle of songs. But these are minor flaws in an otherwise great DVD. The bonus song, "Sittin' on Top of the World", is the highlight of the set. Also be sure to see The American Folk Blues Festival Volume 2, AFBF - The British Tours, and Devil Got My Woman for other great Howlin' Wolf performances.
