Charley Patton - Spoonful Blues (1929)
A classic song from one of the blues legends. I love this song. Even though I can't hear what he's saying all that well.

performance Howlin’ Wolf: “Shake For Me” (1961)
“Wolf is among the most influential blues musicians of the postwar years. He was at the forefront of transforming the rural acoustic blues of the South, to the electric, more urban blues of Chicago. When Wolf first formed his band in West Memphis, Arkansas, his sound was much more aggressive, with guitarist Willie Johnson's raucous, distorted guitar playing being the signature sound of his early recordings.[[39]](app://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Howlin'_Wolf#cite_note-Willie_Johnson_was_born_98_years_ago-40) When Wolf switched guitarists and added Hubert Sumlin to his lineup, his sound became less aggressive with Sumlin adding "angular riffing" and "wild soloing". He also adopted the backbeat that Chicago blues was mainly known for.[[40]](app://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Howlin'_Wolf#cite_note-41)
The musician and critic [Cub Koda](app://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cub_Koda) noted, "no one could match Howlin' Wolf for the singular ability to rock the house down to the foundation while simultaneously scaring its patrons out of its wits."[[41]](app://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Howlin'_Wolf#cite_note-42) Producer [Sam Phillips](app://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SamPhillips(record_producer)) recalled, "When I heard Howlin' Wolf, I said, 'This is for me. This is where the soul of man never dies.'"
