Full Details
Hound Dog Taylor & The Houserockers' 1976 Live Album Beware of the Dog! on LP. This Release Is Now Considered One of the Blues' Greatest Live Albums.
Originally released in 1976, Hound Dog Taylor's raucous and feral Beware Of The Dog! is now considered one of the blues' greatest live albums. Released shortly after Taylor's death in 1975, Beware Of The Dog! captures the primeval glory and pure joy of Taylor and his HouseRockers -- guitarist Brewer Phillips and drummer Ted Harvey -- playing fast, loud, foot-stomping, soul-satisfying music. "The Ramones of the blues," said Village Voice critic Robert Christgau, who called Beware Of The Dog! "a celebration for those who like their blues hot." Since its 1976 release, Beware Of The Dog! has sold over 100,000 units worldwide. Taylor was inducted into the Blues Hall Of Fame in 1986.
"Live wire exuberance and hard-as-nails force, natural for partying, drinking and talking loud...Extra wicked, hellfire slide guitar from the Mississippi-born dynamo” – ROLLING STONE
