Little Howlin' Wolf - Tears Were Fallin' Down Her Face by Family Vineyard published on 2015-07-17T15:31:14Z Track from the "Cool Truth" LP (1985) by Chicago street musician, blues man, actor, storyteller and truth seeker known as Little Howlin' Wolf --- now reissued by Family Vineyard. Wolf is a true outsider, whose wrenching soulfulness and fire-brained intensity have been captured in a breadcrumb trail of confounding and intentionally obscure self-released records. Cool Truth is a damaged, hallucinatory journey that radiates from a Chicago blues core. Performing most, if not all, the instruments himself -- sax, guitar, harmonica, marimba, etc. -- Wolf speaks in tongues, hollers and serenades. The 12 songs recorded between 1979 and 1983 alternate between Sun Ra-style orchestration and primitive forms to more traditional blues takes. Genre Outsider
