The Holwin’ Wolf (vocals & harmonica) appears as a surprise guest of the “Rolling Stones” on a live special TV presentation of the American variety show “Shindig!” on May 20 1965.

The “Rolling Stones” were already scheduled to appear on “Shindig!” a Los Angeles based music variety show hosted by disc jockey Jimmy O’Neill. They were huge Howlin’ Wolf fans and insisted that he be featured on the show with them. The Wolf emerges from the audience and takes to the stage to perform with the British rockers seated at his feet. His stage presence is mesmerizing as he gives this unforgettable energetic rendering of his song “How Many More Years?” This has got to be one of the greatest moments in television history.
