I was a little relieved when The Replacements decided to bag recording any new music during their recent revival. No sense in sullying the old brand. Still, this one did give me a smile. (Paul's "solo" is hilarious.)
Now, here's some real blues. Howling Wolf "Down in the Bottom", 1966.

Wolf completely disses Son House at the beginning of this clip. Taken from the Documentary The Howlin' Wolf Story, a fascinating watch.
I went down to Whole Foods
To get me something tasty and healthy to eat
But all I got was attitude
From your hippie hair--down to your punk rock feet
LOL
I totes balls this.
On a more serious note, that wolf clip is pretty serious business.
Yeah, he and Mr House don't really see eye to eye.
