Re: Backwards Stamping on Presence



I know Willie by sake of his daughters sued and got credits and an undisclosed cache but don't recall Chester "Howlin' Wolf" ever doing so.

Did someone take their own liberties with crediting this to him ?
Don't tell me Will Shade was involved!!!!

I may be wrong, but I seem to remmeber those same credits being given in the box sets/Complete Studio recordings.. Not sure when they started doing that....the lawsuit over WLL was in the early 80-'s I beleive, not sure about the Lemon Song, but I do know I have seen Burnett credited for this before on a Zep album.

Of course Bert Jancshe (I know I botched the speklling but I can't remember it) and Jake Holmes are still forgotten about :) (I love Wagonner's Lad......what a cool tune)
