I had quite a few people send in answers all within minutes of each other! This was quite a race.
I had asked for an "explanation" for this one, so I was looking for a few things to be mentioned in the answer. Those items I was looking for were the following: The LP had a BLUE label, so I was looking for the mention of blues, or blues musician. I was looking for the answer to include the two songs, "Evil" and "Tail Dragger". And of course, since my puzzles are related to a wolf, I was looking for the name of the musician, Chester Arthur Burnett, better known as HOWLIN' WOLF.
Stercox was the first to include all of these in her answer. Congratulations!
There were some other players who were very close! Thank you all for playing.

The puzzle will come out at 2 pm Eastern Time. Good idea. By the time I drag my butt out of bed and have my coffee in west coast the puzzle is already solved. Not mentioning the next half hour I spend cleaning my computer screen of coffee spray when I find out so!

I may not be able to reply right away, but do not fear, these messages are timestamped, so if more than one person has the correct answer, the person who sent it in first will be declared the winner.

The image is of a very Ornate Frame with a big red F in the center. In the F it says, “What is it?” Below it reads, “You’ll know it when you see it.”
There are three words hidden on the two sides and top of the frame. They are what3words = feed.quiet.copper. The w3w lead to the National Gallery of London. If you go to the website for the National Gallery of London, you can find a floorplan. On level zero, there is a room F. You can look at all of the paintings in the room. If you look through them, one shows St. Francis taming a WOLF. (I think it is listed next-to-last.)
The answer I was looking for, or what you would know when you saw it, was "The Wolf of Gubbio" painting by Sassetta.
Thanks to everyone who was playing! Congratulations to the winner.

I will release a puzzle today at 11 pm Eastern Time. I hope that works better for those of you on the West Coast.
Don't forget, in some way, your answer will have to do with wolves, or a wolf. I am releasing these prior to my main Tribute hunt, "The Hunted" as a way to prepare for its coming...
I hope you are having fun playing.
Have a nice day! Beth

I have had many submissions, but no one has had the correct answer. Some have mentioned the next route to take. I think people just aren't able to see it yet.

Please note: You must have BOTH WORDS CORRECT to win. If you submit one correct word, and one incorrect word, I will tell you it is still wrong. This will eliminate guesses.I will not let you know that one of your words is correct.
