HOWLIN WOLF tune...if thats not blues then there is no blues..

[d21cohen]

goddamn his voice gives me the shivers! and that distortion i love it.

if ya;ll like this song check out the derek trucks band version. excellent slide work

[VioletGiraffe]

Best version I've heard, IMHO. Howling Wolf's included.

[ngliza]

Yeah Mr Clapton ..

[myunknownvirus]

Weak imitation of the Wolf. Waste of space.

@jd51452 I have. I still think RL Burnside's version is better than howling wolfs

[dtreeguy]

F-ing great. Goosebumps..

It's amazing he can play with so much gain without that big jazz box feeding back. Try that at home.

Have you heard the Little Feat version from their debut album? Pretty impressive work from Lowell George.

[bran1226]

he sounds like a drunk china man, howlin wolf is the real deal, not this corny clown!

[p1ippers]

Colin James does a fantastic version of this as well..

Damn, Clapton. Could you please one day play like this again. I miss you from the cradle.
