HOUND DOG TAYLOR
with BREWER PHILLIPS, guitar, vocal and TED HARVEY, drums
Alligator Records, Chicago's leading contemporary blues label, might never have been launched at all
if not for the crashing, slashing slide guitar antics of Hound Dog Taylor. Bruce Iglauer, then an employee
of Delmark Records, couldn't convince his boss, Bob Koester, of Taylor's potential, so Iglauer took matters
into his own hands. In 1971, Alligator was born for the express purpose
of releasing Hound Dog's debut album. We all know what transpired after that.
"BEWARE OF THE DOG!"
Tracks A3, B4 recorded live at Northwestern University, Evanston, Ill., January 18, 1974 for WXRT-FM, Chicago.
Tracks A1, A2, A4 to B3, B5 recorded live at the Smiling Dog Saloon, Cleveland, Ohio, Nov. 22-24, 1974, for WMMS-FM, Cleveland.

Beware of the Dog was Hound Dog Taylor's posthumous live album containing performances that are
even steamier than his first two studio albums, if such a notion is possible. For lowdown slow blues,
it's hard to beat the heartfelt closer "Freddie's Blues," and for surreal moments on wax,
it's equally hard to beat the funkhouse-turned-loony bin dementia of "Let's Get Funky"
or the hopped up hillbilly fever rendition of "Comin' Around the Mountain."...(AllMusic)
