布鲁斯先驱Howlin’ Wolf的第二张录音室专辑,由于封面的原因,也被叫做&The Rocking Chair Album&(摇滚的椅子专辑)。1971年,当他在伦敦巡演的时候,后来被称为吉他之神的Eric Clapton大为折服,向Howlin' Wolf虚心求教如何弹奏那首&The Red Rooster&,这位Wolf大叔的吉他功力可想而知了。这也是Blues历史上最有影响力的专辑之一。
这张专辑在滚石杂志选出的500张历代最强专辑中排名第223位。
Howlin' Wolf's second album brings together some of the blues great's best singles from the late '50s and early '60s. Also available as a fine two-fer with his debut, Moanin' in the Moonlight, the so-called Rockin' Chair Album represents the cream of Wolf's Chicago blues work. Those tracks afforded classic status are many, including &Spoonful,& &The Red Rooster,& &Wang Dang Doodle,& &Back Door Man,& &Shake for Me,& and &Who's Been Talking?& Also featuring the fine work of Chess house producer and bassist Willie Dixon and guitarist Hubert Sumlin, Rockin' Chair qualifies as one of pinnacles of early electric blues, and is an essential album for any quality blues collection.
