THE QUEEN OF ENGLAND'S FAVORITE MUSICIAN IS MUDDY WATERS...NUF SAID ? NAW !
THIS IS THE ORIGIN OF SPECIES OF CHICAGO BLUES
ITS MUDDY AT HIS MOST PURE, SOMETIMES WITH HIS COUSIN CHARLES [CHUCK] BERRY ON SECOND GUITAR
MUDDY ON SLIDE GUITAR, A STUDENT OF SON HOUSE...ITS HILL COUNTRY BLUES A RELATIVE OF DELTA BLUES
ITS ALL PRIMITIVE AND LACED WITH THE ATTITUDE THAT ONLY MUDDY BRINGS TO THE TABLE
SOME OF IT IS POORLY RECORDED, BUT THE ONES THAT AREN/T, ARE A MUSICOLOGISTS DREAM
MUDDY IS THE MAN FROM THE STOVALL PLANTATION TO CHICAGO TO NOW...
SO YOU CAN/T GO WRONG BUT YOU GOTTA GET OVER THE HISS, CRACK, AND SUCH OF OLD POORLY RECORDED [IN THE FIELD] MUSIC FROM THE 1930'S

Muddy Waters is every bit as amazing on acoustic as he is on electric. This album paints a great picture of the music that influenced him, and is full of sounds that you hear in today's music that could only have been a result of Muddy's influence. The album ends hauntingly with "You Gonna Miss Me." After hearing this album, I for one miss Muddy. The price of this album makes it an incredible value that no blues enthusiast should pass up.
