Chicago's Own-Hound Dog Taylor
Out on the town this past Saturday night, I was reminded of this song amidst all the Halloween revelers. I've never been a fan of the Chicago Blues, but when I came across this record back in my Jazz Record Mart days, I was struck by the raw organic feel of Hound Dog's two guitar + drums attack...raw and reckless... and the lyrics are priceless. This smokin' 1974 live recording was released as Beware of the Dog after Hound Dog's Death in 1975.
