“Muddy Mississippi Waters Live”  1979 Blue Sky Records

Late Era Muddy Waters is on tap here. And the man who made the pretty woman "jump and shout" sure had the goods. The various tracks recorded for this album were taken from two dates stretching 1977-78. While backed by a great group including Bob Margolin, Luther "Guitar Jr." Johnson and Pinetop Perkins -- It's Muddy's own playing and singing that absolutely cuts through on standards like "Mannish Boy," "She's Only Nineteen Years Old," and "Nine Below Zero." Water's was experiencing a late career renaissance due to his back to back studio recordings of Hard Again & I'm Ready. And if having the man who produced those albums, Johnny Winter, on a few of these live recordings isn't key... you still feel that Muddy was a blues icon who loved being surrounded by a new generation. This release is absolutely essential for fans interested in the full scope of Muddy Water's career”.
