Description
OH THAT VOICE!!! The greatest voice that all but created Rock with his growling, and screaming. His later records like this one is every bit as good, maybe better, than his early LPs that are so coveted and rare. This would be the Wolf's final LP during his lifetime. He's backed here by his touring band of the time: Hubert Sumlin guitar, Detroit Junior, Chico Chism, and Shorty Gilbert. Here's a US 1973 STEREO FIRST PRESSING of HOWLIN' WOLF'S LP THE BACK DOOR WOLF on CHESS RECORDS (There were no mono pressings). A very cool electric blues LP. One of his many badass LP's. This one is a 1973 US PRESSING. This is a beautiful SUPER CLEAN MINT VINYL. The LP plays perfectly-- MINT. The labels are clean as is the Vinyl. The cover is in great shape, but with soft or slightly dented corners, and on corner cut out. The seams and spine also show wear. -- VG+ COVER. A great play, classic WOLF. His last recorded LP, and despite his declining health, he's at the top of his game.
First pressings were on the orange & blue label, with "manufactured by GRT Corporation" at bottom of label.
COVER--- VG+ VINYL--- NEAR MINT

The cover and packaging might have slight wear and / or creasing.

Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.G = (GOOD) The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches.
