Chester Arthur Burnett, known as Howlin’ Wolf, was one of if not the greatest Blues artists of his time. He began his recording career in the early 1950’s, but it was the Rolling Stones who made his enormous contributions to the Blues known to the world. Like Elvis, Howlin’ Wolf recorded his early music at the famous Sun studios. His first records came in 1951 like “Crying at Daybreak” and “My Baby Stole Off.” Issued by RPM Records, each of these 45’s is worth up to $3,000.00 today.
