Euro Wolf

Howlin’ Wolf plays guitar along with Hubert Sumlin during an energetic performance from the 1964 American Folk and Blues Festival tour.

In 1964 Howlin’ Wolf toured Europe as part of the American Folk Blues Festival tour produced by German promoters Horst Lippmann and Fritz Rau. During the tour Wolf’s guitarist Hubert Sumlin would make the first recordings under his own name. The following year ‘The Wolf’ appeared on the television show “Shindig” at the insistence of The Rolling Stones, who were scheduled to appear on the same program and had covered “Little Red Rooster” on an early album.
