I used to see Hound Dog Taylor a lot at The Expressway Lounge on Garfield Ave.
on Chicago's South Side. Man, It was cool. They had a laundrymat next door & while the little old ladies clothes were spinnin' they'd come over and cool one while Hound Dog was bluesin' it up. A lot of black bikers were in the club too. Most of them called Hound Dog "Slim."

Hound dog is so raw !! you can see he's pretty sauced up too . You can definitely here how he influenced George Thorogood .
Imagine working all week in a sweaty factory for peanuts, but you've got more money now than you ever had working for that farm in Mississippi. You've even got enough to go out Friday night. You go to a club. Nobody's calling you "boy". Everybody just wants to have a fun time dancin' and jokin' and jivin'. You can smell the cigarrette smoke. You smell some fried chicken and maybe some ribs. And a skinny guy is playing the hell out of a cheap Japanese guitar through a cracked Sears amplifier.
