McKinley Morganfield was born in Rolling Fork, Mississippi on April 4, 1915.  When he was just 3 years old, his mother died, so his maternal grandmother took over his care, and he moved the small town of Clarksdale, about 100 miles north of his hometown.

Muddy Waters learned how to play the harmonica when he was 13, and the guitar at the age of 17.  His early influences were Son House, and Robert Johnson.  He loved the sound of the "Bottleneck" style of guitar accompaniment.  With this style, he could utilize the guitar as an extension of his voice, using dips and sliding notes.  Working on a local plantation, he made a name for himself locally as a musician and a moonshine bootlegger. 

In 1941, he cut his first record for the Records Library of Congress Folksong Archives.  The team was headed by Alan Lomax, who was responsible for rediscovering many great blues artists who were virtually unknown to white audiences.  Muddy Waters recorded for him for 2 years.

In 1943, Muddy Waters moved to Chicago, under the wing of Big Bill Broonzy.  It was here that Waters got his first electric guitar.  Life wasn't as easy for him as he suspected.  He played at house parties, and small clubs before he got his first chance to record.  His first recordings were with Columbia Records, but, unfortunately, the recordings weren't issued until 1971.

In 1948, He cut some unsuccessful records under the Aristocrat label. Two years later, he signed with Chess records, and scored a hit with the single "I Can't Be Satisfied/I Feel Like Going Home".  In less than a day, the record's entire stock had been sold.

What followed from 1951-1960 were probably the greatest collection of electric blues recordings ever made.  Waters' songs like Mannish Boy, Loving Man, Mad Love and Long Distance Call were accented by songs  Willie Dixon had given him like Hoochie Coochie Man, I'm a Natural Born Lover, I'm Ready, and the classic I Just Want to Make Love To You.  These records defined the Chicago Blues sound during this period.
