Overview
One of the major figures of modern American music, Muddy Waters revolutionized the blues and helped to shape the main stem of classic rock 'n' roll. Waters learned country blues growing up in Mississippi during the 1930s and early '40s. Relocating to Chicago, he eventually got himself an electric guitar and put a loud and lively band behind him -- the rest is history. Some of the most powerful of the groundbreaking performances that Waters and his early ensembles recorded can be heard on this well-chosen collection, which includes ”I Can’t Be Satisfied,” “Long Distance Call,” “Got My Mojo Working,” and "( I'm Your) Hoochie Coochie Man.” Among the celebrated bluesmen supporting Waters’s magnificent vocals and slide guitar are harmonica giant Little Walter, guitarist Jimmy Rodgers, and pianist Otis Spann. The rockers who were influenced by these and other Waters classics -- from the Rolling Stones to Bonnie Raitt, on through today’s blues-informed performers -- are simply innumerable. The set concludes with a later Waters gem, the aptly titled “The Blues Had a Baby and They Named It Rock ‘n’ Roll.”
