Performer: Muddy Waters
Distributor: BMG Special Products Notes: This Sony Legacy set contains a hodgepodge of performances by Muddy Waters and his fine band at the end of his life, as originally documented on his Blue Sky releases. This is a nice little sampler, but since the albums Hard Again and I'm Ready are already cheap, this will merely whet your appetite. ~ Thom Jurek
Mojo (Publisher) (p.109) - 4 stars out of 5 - "Muddy's first decade, complete and tremendous: major planets in the galaxy of Chicago blues."
Originally a Delta bluesman in the vein of Son House, Muddy Waters moved north in the 1940s and became the leader of the first--and greatest--electric Chicago blues band. Waters' abrasive guitar, impassioned singing, and commanding stage presence inspired generations of disciples, and hits like "Hoochie Coochie Man" and "I've Got My Mojo Workin'" are now indisputable classics.
