"MORE THAN ANY OTHER BLUESMAN, CHESTER BURNETT WAS THE MAN."
NOTE: Didn't know which one I liked best, so, here's two illustrations, with differing color schemes, of the Big Bad Wolf.
MINI-OVERVIEW: "Of all the men and women in my book, Howlin’ Wolf was the one who ultimately commanded my respect and admiration more than anyone else.
Chess Records’ nickname was Cadillac Records. Part of their negotiating savvy included presenting a new Cadillac to whomever they wanted to sign to the label – neglecting, however, to inform their future stablemate that the Cadillac was not actually a gift, it was coming out of the musician’s future royalties. They couldn’t do that with Wolf. Chester Burnett (Wolf’s real name) was already a star in Memphis when he was approached by Chess Records. When the Wolf arrived in Chicago to negotiate his deal with Chess, he already owned a new car. He arrived in Chicago with thousands of dollars cash in his pockets – unheard of for a bluesman back then. He was able to cut himself a good deal. A high school dropout, Wolf used some of his Chess money to finish high school. He then enrolled in a Chicago business college, figuring that if he were a good businessman he could hire the best backing band in Chicago. On top of all that he became the first blues bandleader to give his musicians health care benefits. More than any other bluesman, Chester Burnett was The Man.
In his portrait I played up his spooky stage persona (full moon, a bat and a haunting bare tree) yet also attempted to capture the kind, engaging gentleman lurking within the crazed singer who scarily stalked the stage."
-- WILLIAM STOUT (American painter/illustrator/blues music aficionado) on Howlin' Wolf

Record 2686. #HowlinWolf @sniderman84 Jack Black Hifidelity Blonde on Blonded me with this album while record shopping one day. And like Jack Black, he was right. Most of the greats you'd associate with Howlin Wolf are on this record, all those songs that have been brought into the popular zeitgeist through movies, tv or of course the many rock n roll groups that absorbed his sound from The Rolling Stones to Led Zeppelin. #blues #chicagoblues #musthavealbum #classicalbum #vinyl #records #nowspinning #vinyljunkies #recordcollection #vinyligclub https://www.instagram.com/p/CkXp839vLSH/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

MANNISH [POSTER] BOY FOR POST-WAR CHICAGO BLUES & CHESS RECORDS.
NOTE: ^See what I did there. Only hardcore blues nuts will know.
PIC INFO: Spotlight on the crucial electric bluesman who in the 1940s and 1950s led the way in transforming traditional Delta blues into the electric Chicago blues style that paved the road to rock ‘n’ roll -- MUDDY WATERS (1914-1983), illustrated by William Stout for his "Legends of the Blues" portraits series.
"Perhaps no other player represents post-war Chicago blues and Chess Records like Muddy Waters does. Sexy, classy, admired and feared, Muddy excited groups like THE ROLLING STONES and MANFRED MANN. His thrilling records were covered by most of the British blues bands. Muddy's recording of Willie Dixon's "You Need Love" was lifted by the SMALL FACES and perfromed as "You Need Loving" on one of their first LP's. Robert Plant saw the Small Faces perform it live, then turned it into LED ZEPPELIN's "Whole Lotta Love," not realizing the song's earlier origins.
"What color should I make the background?," was a question I often asked myself during the creation of "Legends of the Blues," wanting as much variety as possible. In Muddy's case the choice was obvious: something suggesting the color of mud."
