Song Lyric Sunday: Howlin’ Wolf, “Who’s Been Talkin'”

Song Lyric Sunday, Song of the Day 1 Minute

Here at the start of the new month, Jim looks to Di, who prompts us with “sounds, talk, voice, words.” Back to the blues this week and Chester Arthur Burnett, aka Howlin’ Wolf, who recorded his song “Who’s Been Talkin'” as the B side to “Tell Me,” neither of which charted. Several artists, including Robert Cray, have covered it (Cray used it as the title track for his first album).

That’s Song Lyric Sunday (and Song of the Day) for September 4, 2022.

      1. I agree totally. John some of them have a distorted sound in the vocals…I don’t mean that in a bad way either…it pierces right through you.
