  • I love the smiles, guy knew everyone loved him...

  • No, it is definitely the studio version. Hand clapping audio has been added, to make it look like it matches the audio, but the song played in this video is 100% the studio recording. Not live.

  • That's gettin it

  • The Blues doesn't get any better than Howlin' Wolf!!!!

  • This man got me hooked on blues 52 years ago,Ive got the music of all the old great blues singers the late 20s up until present

  • What a badass! :D

  • Hey "slowhandxx", to be precise it's more like("Howlin For My Darlin"), like you know what your talking about.

  • Took the audience a while to find the rhythm lol

  • τρέλααααααααα

  • 1965

  • Excellant!! What a great job of mixing & matching to the music...and SOUND! Reminds of how 'hot' this sound these guys actually were back then!!! Thank you.

  • hahha white folks sure love the blues but they sure can't move to it.

    

  • i have a feeling he must have been alot of fun to watch live, at that time. kinda shook it like elvis...lol

    i really like the women in the audience too...they look sweet & natural...very pretty. wonder if any klan was lurking in the audience? lol

  • @MrAnthony78666 elvis imitates him....

  • @TheSatanas666 - thenm elvis did a lousy jobn cuz he sucked compared to this

  • @MrAnthony78666 i dont think many of them were in rhode island. rhode island is the north. yankees.

  • @doox420 good point! : )

  • @doox420 , nope, none of them were.

    This is the Newport Folk Festival, ,and they booked these great acts from the mississippi delta.

    FYI, the big moment in history is when Bob Dylan appeared at Fort Adams in 1965 playing an electric guitar ( a Fender Stratocaster) instead of an acoustic guitar, and it upset quite bit of his faithful fan base.

    I have a fond memory of seeing Muddy Waters play at Rhodes-On-the-Pawtuxet in Cranston, R.I in 1977.

  • My favourite howlin wolf's song

  • Really Cool! I just wish the camera was facing the stage more...

  • The audio of this video is a pre-recorded studio version.

    Was the Wolf miming at that gig to his record - or is it just silent video footage with the record dubbed over more recently ?

  • @snakehips81 No way he was miming, it must be edited this way.

    Would have loved to hear him live.

  • Wolf recorded it a couple times, as both "Howlin' for My Baby" and "Howlin' For My Darling." You can look it up.

  • Wearing a black suit as the hot sun shoots arrows of ultra rays down on him, but he just keeps on playing the blues and doesn't even loosen his tie.

  • he's a 10, with none higher, pretty baby

  • thats one thing about wolf ,he can put on a show,thats what you call a musician,he could do it all french harp guitar and sing and show

  • what a performance !!this is how you do it!!straight from the heart is the only way you can do it right !!!and wolf and the rest of the old timers knew that!!!

  • Thanks for this upload! One of my favorite of the Wolf!

  • Oops.  I see. Newport.

  • It's IF YOU HEAR ME HOWLIN. Is this at Ann Arbor Blues Fest?

  • It's IF YOU HEAR ME HOWLIN.

  • @01twincam

    Thanks! I've changed the title!

  • @banjostead To be completely right, the right title is "Howlin for my darling" :-)

  • @01twincam no it's not. It's Howlin For My Darlin

  • @BluesInMySoul YOU ARE SO RIGHT. SORRY

  • Wolf is amazing! And what a variety of people for the early sixties,it sure ain't Mississippi.Blacks,whites,head­s,reds,some not knowing what to think,BUT ALL DIGGING IT BY THE TIME THAT HE IS DONE!!!!!!

  • Proper! Feed me more sheet like this

  • The Wolf, an ice chest full, and no one in the way

  • This song is called "Howlin' for My Darlin'" =)

  • totally fucking rad
