Smokestack Lightning (Howlin' Wolf cover) Lyrics

Cover art for Smokestack Lightning (Howlin' Wolf cover) lyrics by Soundgarden

Love Sonic Youth's Death Valley '69 at the end. It sounds recorded off of a record player, with skips and static and everything, like one of the band members listened to it so much, it got worn and old. I love Sonic youth's early stuff before they got famous, it was very crude, kinda how i like Soundgarden's early stuff.

And sampling a song from the early scenes of art rock on a song that is a cover of a song from the early scenes of blues/rock is strange. The two genres come from very different places.
