[@katec8796]

One of the greatest reactions to one of the greatest videos on KZbin - Muddy Waters was truly sublime ;)

[@stevenm.6886]

I’m 58 and have been listening to Muddy all my life! Along with John Lee Hooker. You are the FIRST to react to him that I’ve seen. THANK YOU! It took British rock guys to come over here and wake people up to these dudes. I got to see Muddy right before he died thank God! I believe it was ‘78 or ‘79. Smallish rock and roll club that was PACKED. What a memory

[@mullahosk585]

Your making me very jealous! The closet I got was seeing Jimmy Rodgers in a small London club back in the late 90's..He reproduced the Muddy Chicago Blues sound beautifully.

[@kevinlakeman5043]

Correction- they 'woke up' non-blues fan white people to Muddy and his peers.

[@paulkersey1007]

You Uncle is one of those guys I swear to God I just wanna reaction blues music with. He knows his stuff. Your uncle is one bad mother........

[@peterhudgens8817]

You can not get tired of this song no matter how many times you listen to it. This great classic jam is playlist material today!

[@susanfontaine5214]

My 22 year old nephew is a great guitar player. ONLY plays old blues. Muddy Waters is one of his heroes. He’s a blues snob at 22! Please play some Allman Brothers, Whipping Post, Stevie Ray Vaughn. You won’t be disappointed!

[@vlada]

Testosterone coursing thru a young man's body learning to play the blues obsessively is very intoxicating. And common. 😏 It becomes all consuming,... but most come out of this phase. Some don't make it out of the obsession and become professional musicians. 😂 Yes on SRV and ABB.

[@navyvet1382]

Came across this song yesterday can’t get enough of it’s a bad ass tune

[@plilly0330]

You should watch Cadillac records you will love it

I saw Muddy Waters at the Chapell Hill Blues(Texas) Festival in the summer of 1974. There were several other blues legends there. It was at a motocross park that was brand new. There were torrential rains all weekend. Power was intermittent and the few people that stayed had their vehicles stuck in the mud. Luckily we never ran out of beer as there were only 20 or so fans who stayed. Great show! I had very little historical context of what or who I was seeing at the time but it was awesome. My memory of Muddy was that he only did a few songs in during rain on a covered stage that leaking a lot by that point. It was all good. I have been a fan ever since. The motocross park and promoter went broke after the disastrous weather but I will always have the memories.

[@chriskenner600]

He recorded this song with Johnny Winter in 67 with Johnny on guitar and various screams and shouts! RIP Muddy!💖🙏✌

[@AndrewVOdom]

‘78 or ‘79 , not ‘67

[@jeffsullivan4150]

Muddy recorded Mannish Boy in 1955

[@chriskenner600]

I love pops reaction. Go ahead boy! Muddy was the man! RIP McKinley Morganfield!( Muddy Waters)!💖🙏✌

[@Adam-mj8kn]

Father of rock and roll!!!🕺👏👍🏻🤘

[@vangannaway1015]

Fun Fact. This was a response to Bo Diddleys I'm A Man. Both on Chess Records.

[@briancoffey4581]

NEVER leave Uncle Ted hanging! Hey there, Mojo and, of course, my new hero Uncle Ted! Fantastic reaction, love Muddy myself! My personal favorite recording of this was from the 1977 album "Hard Again", featuring guitar work and production by the late, great, Albino Texas blues rocker extraordinaire, Johnny Winter. That's the version heard in films such as "Better Off Dead" and "GoodFellas".

[@Stiglr]

"You know I make the moon, honey, come up two hours late". DAMN!!!!! Love me some Muddy Waters!!!

[@filthyphillyboy]

Mojo Daddy Mystic said, "one of the founders of rock n' roll.." You better believe it. Muddy created the "Rock n' Roll Combo": lead singer, amplified rhythm and lead guitars, drum set, stand up base, harmonica.

[@abelhansen]

They dont make singers like muddy waters baby any more like him. R I P. My friend.

[@peterpanassow7814]

U and ur uncle r a pleasure to watch! The smiles. Love ur channel. 👍

[@chriskenner600]

That's what it's all about pops. Love the reaction. I have the same one!😆✌

[@bobschenkel7921]

Mr. McKinley Morganfield, Muddy Waters real name, was as influential in the British Blues scene as any American artist they had discovered. The Stones, Eric Clapton, Eric Burdon, etc all loved Ol' Muddy.

[@chrisjaybecker]

The great George 'Harmonica' Smith on amplified Blues harmonica.

[@jamescobb2624]

When this song came out southern newspapers referred to black males - regardless of age - as boys. (While white women were called "ladies," black females were called "women.") Every time I listen to this song I here his defience as he reminds everyone he is a MAAHN.

[@sfbayareagirl]

An absolute pleasure watching you guys. I love Muddy Waters. Check the same song from his performance on The Last Waltz. I’ve always been stuck in that one, but this is one I hadn’t seen yet. Thanks Pops, for showing your boy, and for showing me! PS, I’m in! I subscribed. I have some suggestions for you, but I’ll wait a minute to see where you’re going here. Cheers and Rock!

[@vlada]

Here ya go: kzbin.info/www/bejne/e2a2m2iqpdNgpNE It's also my fave version. I was in high school early 80s, local rock station sponsored a showing of last waltz and I won tickets. I had only heard Muddy on records and seen pictures, this was the first time I saw video of him performing.

[@sfbayareagirl]

vlada Yeahhhh!

Da Blues ain't nothin but Truth drinking straight!

[@eddie_77]

I'm a natural born lover... There's absolutely no body like Muddy Waters. Excellent reaction with the other gentleman! ✌️

[@michaeldonaghey]

Muddy first played England in 1958, long before the Stones existed.

[@keithjames7843]

He wrote a song called The Blues Had A Baby and they named it rockin roll

[@keithjames7843]

So many good songs He is the king of the blues

[@photoboy2005]

That’s the first song ever had that lick in her too. That’s that Deep South stuff you can’t understand this till it’s 105 in a shade, 100% humidity, and them mosquitoes and chiggers chewin on you.

[@notrare_png]

I know im hella late, but your dad would absolutely LOVE watching Muddy Waters "Live at the Checkerboard Lounge", the stones came to watch and ended up performing a bunch of songs with him. including this one. all the songs are on youtube as separate videos, and there is also a full show video. not to mention buddy guy also makes an appearance

[@Jon-ud3mi]

You guys would love the video of the Stones getting up to jam with Muddy at one of his shows. If you search for Rolling Stones Muddy Waters, you’ll find it 👌🏼

[@peteldoyle]

YEAH.......Natural born lovers man......I'm a rolling stone.

[@justinscrivner5457]

The first Male testosterone song born.

[@mjordan478]

Great reaction! Uncle Ted is diggin' it! Just watched your America reaction. It reminded me of a song that is still relevant about America. It's called "Monster" by Steppenwolf. Would love to hear you and Mama Moon reaction.

[@marymargaretmoore9034]

Great reaction! I’m a huge fan of the blues. There is a great video of Muddy doing this with Mick Jagger/Keith Richards/Ron Wood.

[@sfbayareagirl]

Yessss! That’s an amazing live performance. Just watched it!

Tell Uncle Ted that Muddy was from Clarksdale, MS, in the heart of the Delta. Muddy was born in Rolling Fork, MS, but he grew up on the Stovall plantation near Clarksdale.

[@jimdunagan4180]

I love this song..had a live cd of it....so cool....

[@keithjames7843]

If you looked the definition of the blues it would have a picture of Muddy Waters beside the definition He is the real king of the blues Anyone that plays the blues has covered most of Muddy Waters songs But they can’t sing it like Muddy Waters One of his best albums is called Muddy Mississippi Water Delta blues

[@SillyPottyMouth]

I loved it!!!

Love him! Puts me in the mood for some John Lee Hooker... Great energy on the reaction.

[@Jaybird-zl9ve]

You should try "The blues had a baby, and they named it Rock and Roll." By Muddy Waters.

[@jackasswhiskyandpintobeans9344]

I have a line on some Duke Pearson ephemera: a signed letter on Blue Note stationary and an extensive hand written band line-up.

[@nellgwenn]

If you haven't already, I hope you have a chance to listen to the whole Hard Again album by Muddy Waters. At that time Johnny Winters was recording and touring with him. And you have to do songs from the Big Bad Wolf. Howlin' Wolf. Another time that the Rolling Stones showed respect was when they were asked to be in a TV show called Shindig. They said they would only do it if they had Howlin' Wolf on as well.

[@LaptopLarry330]

I like Muddy Waters' song, "Walking Through The Park", from 1958 (I think).

[@bwana-ma-coo-bah425]

Play "refer and cocaine"

[@suzannesellers7383]

I wonder where this was recorded by Muddy.

Very cool

[@christinajensen8058]

And all the whithe folks says ohh yeah

[@DakotaBorn-111]

It was mentioned by someone else but its worth checking out The version with Muddy and the band and Johnny Winter. Johnny produced some of Muddies best recordings. Their version makes this one seem kind of flat.

Pls react to Muddy Waters featuring The Rolling Stones, same song, 22/11/1981 Chicago. Great! Also Howlin` Wolf Backdoor Man, thx
