    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 lues, 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."

Saturday is for the Blues: Hound Dog Taylor
4 months ago

Been getting into playing Blues records on saturday morning. Hound Dog Taylor has always been one of my favorites. Bruce Iglauer started a record company....Alligator Records just to record him. I am so glad he did. I have always been fond of the Elmore James style of playing. Its a shame nothing from the period before Alligator has ever surfacedMore >
