Erik Ipod Playlist: Howlin Wolf Tail Dragger
I swear every time I hear this song I smell a smoke filled bar. Being sellers of used music we are beyond fortunate to have an Ipod full of old Blues. Its always a welcome treat when one pops up during shuffle mode. Its funny too because they love to insert themselves between Taylor Swift and The Smiths. My Ipod has a personality disorder. Howlin Wolf was just about the only old Blues Masters to acquire a fortune. Most were not paid well or squandered their money on wild women and booze. Not Howlin Wolf , he was illiterate until the age of 40 and went back to school to get a GED. He armed his self with an education . What a smart and talented man he was.
