very sad - another highly influencial, major talent gone


Chicago bluesman Hubert Sumlin, guitarist for Howlin’ Wolf, dies at 80
---
Besides playing on some of the most amazing and influential blues songs of all time - his work with Howlin' Wolf is especially majestic - Sumlin released a solo album not long ago that is truly solid. Very sad to see him go at the too-young age of 80.
