on this loooong list of Blues legends from Mississippi. At 6'6" and
300 lbs., Howlin' Wolf (b. Chester Arthur Burnett, 1910-1976) was
truly a giant in the field, and that booming voice of his certainly
backed up the imposing figure. For more on his life and career, see:

Wolf but about him:
"Howlin' Wolf's voice has been compared to 'the sound of
heavy machinery operating on a gravel road.'"
