When I met my future wife to be she was 19 years old and this was “our song.” Not to mention the coolest part was that I was 18! We used to go see Muddy back then, in 1969. 55 years later we are still together (married 52). Thank you Muddy for the advice!

100% pure blues. Was glad I got to see Muddy Waters once in concert.

[@gdawg77123]

You are fortunate to have had that experience, sir. Muddy Waters is the musician who can turn any shitty day into a perfect day more than half a century later.

[@antonmikofsky2073]

Also saw, heard Muddy.

[@vintagepipesnightmares]

Yes and I also love how he always fakes playing guitar.

Muddy took that pose on an album cover...looking up to the sky and the blues.

[@tomluton8005]

Privileged to spend an evening with Sonny Boy Muddy Waters, Memphis Slim, and others at Croydon in 1963. He let me carry his attaché case, which contained several harps and a bottle of Johnny Walker. He passed around the table and insisted we all take a swig. All the kids were transfixed as Sonny did his set backed by Eric Clapton( I’d Never Heard of him) what a magic evening…. If the Lord asks about one of my best times on earth, this was the most memorable…Sonny Boy wanted to live in England.. he really made a mark. It didn’t happen and he died in 1965, the year I emigrated to the Us. Thank God for KZbin…😊

[@johnnyacevedo153]

I got to play with willy big eyes 😳 smith drums, Calvin Jones bass, pinetop perkins piano when muddy waters passed away, they became the legendary blues band, They were playing in Fort Collins Colorado and someone called me and told me Jerry portnoys fender super reverb blew up and they knew I had one so I lend it to him and I got to blow harp with portnoy and the band and the second time I got to play with them was At the Greeley blues Festival and the 3rd time at the soiled dove in Denver, me and Willie bigeyes Smith were great friends, when they played around the area me and Willie would go for drives up in the mountains He loved the Rocky Mountains we kept in touch for a few years now and then he would send me a album, what memories😎

[@bluesbertl2909]

Because sound quality peaked by late 60s, or early 70s at latest, most « innovations » since then are about decreasing price or size of equipment or adding more volume or bass
