MUDDY WATERS. BRASS AND THE BLUES. UK CHESS MONO CRL4526 From 1966


A RARE ONE ! ORIGINAL BLACK AND SILVER UK CHESS LABEL

PLAYS FINE NO SKIPPING 

Note Side 2 has Vinyl Pressing discolouration.

This is all over and is caused by the inner sleeve and the disc being packed tight next to other LP's in my collection.

Side 1 is o.k.

SLEEVE INTACT WITH SLIGHT SIGNS OF AGE


This is a strange -- though in large part, successful -- album on a number of counts. 

Appearing after the release of the singles compilation Real Folk Blues, Brass and the Blues (also sometimes known as Muddy, Brass, and the Blues)

was Chess Records' effort to give some fresh momentum to Muddy Waters' current recordings. 

It was only his third original LP following his tribute album to Big Bill Broonzy and the Folk Singer album.

Those earlier albums had been built around Waters simply returning to sounds and influences out of his past, 

but for Brass and the Blues the label tried to give him a new sound, somewhere close to that of B.B. King.

The presence of the brass and the prominent organ on some songs was manageable. 

Stripped of his guitar once again (the cover photo notwithstanding), Waters proved what a great R&B singer he was.

Sammy Lawhorn and Pee Wee Madison's guitars come through the dubbed-on brass reasonably well, and this is more of a real "band" sound

than was achieved on, say, Electric Mud.


Musicians:

Muddy Waters – guitar, vocals

Otis Spann – piano

Pinetop Perkins – organ

James "Pee Wee" Madison – guitar

Calvin "Fuzz" Jones – bass

James Cotton – harmonica

Gene Barge – tenor sax

Willie "Big Eyes" Smith – drums
