Here are a couple covers of the Elmore James classic.First, the legendary Howlin' Wolf:

This one's probably my favorite, though :)

dermahrk says Might I take a moment to plug the source for that Howlin' Wolf clip? It's from a DVD entitled "The Secret History of Rock and Roll: The Howlin' Wolf Story". That apparent house concert is featured, with several more great songs (and isn't that Son House in the hat dancing in the audience?) along with lots more material, and is more than worth the few sheckels it costs. Take it from someone who knows. You know I love ZZ Top too. This whole post just made my morning! Dusty really shreds that vocal. Wow!
