Johnny Winter produced three albums for Muddy including Hard Again. Johnny was the yells at the kickoff as well as some of his usual guitar licks. What a collection of true geniuses.
The man is royalty! Check out him doing this with The Band at The Last Waltz concert. you can tell what a thrill the guys were having on stage with him. It’s just incredible.
You gotta check Him LIVE at Checkerboard Lounge doing "Baby Please Don't Go". A Young Rolling Stones band rolls in to take in the show from one of their heros. Muddy invites them on stage. You can see the nervousness in Mick's face initially......
Muddy Waters, real name McKinley Morganfield, is THE legend of Chicago and Delta Blues. His performance of "Mannish Boy" in "The Last Waltz" shows his passion and energy, even when he was well past his prime. The album "Hard Again" was produced by another Blues Legend, Johnny Winter, and those are his yells you hear in the background, and foreground. Proud to say I've had this album in my collection for decades.
Such a classic. The version in the Last Waltz film is a great watch as well. He had a real stage presence. But also one of the greats of Delta Blues, later moving to Chicago and being one of the pioneers of Chicago blues.
Hard to believe the man was in his late '60's when this was recorded. Muddy's original version was in the mid '50's, but I honestly think this Johnny Winter produced 1979 rendition was even better. And how cool is Muddy's voice. Unbeatable. Please man, do some Howlin' Wolf next baby. "Smokestack Lightning" or "Commit A Crime" or "You Gonna Wreck My Life" or "Moaning In The Moonlight" or "Spoonful" or "Back Door Man".
Muddy Watters, John Lee Hooker, Howlin' Wolf - That's the Blues. The Rolling Stones got their name from this song where he sings 'I'm a Rolling Stone".
Yes, more blues please. I love it when you delve into roots music. The influence these black, American bluesmen had on early rock is beyond measure. Check out from Muddy "You Need Love" which was covered by Small Faces as "You Need Lovin", which inspired Zep to cover their version with "Whole Lotta Love". It's fun to go back to hear the original inspiration. So many later rock songs started with these bluesmen.
This is a re-recording of his 1955 tune released on Chess Records. The original is the definitive version, although this is fine too. Johnny Winter helped Muddy to get a revival with these late 70’s rerecordings. Original song writing credits are Morganfield (Muddy), London (Producer) and McDaniel (Bo Diddley) and the song is an answer song to Diddley’s I’m a man.
This is a CLASSIC blues song from Muddy Waters. Some friends and I did a road trip from Memphis to New Orleans. We stopped in Clarksdale, Mississippi. Muddy Waters grew up just outside Clarksdale. Being fans, we asked some guys at a gas station if any of his relatives live in town. They pointed down the street and said his sister lives down there in that house. Excited, we knocked on the door but got no answer. The sister might have looked at us and said, no way I'm answering that door, or maybe she wasn't home. Clasksdale is just a few miles away from the Mississippi River. There's a 'feel' to the place down there, the Mississippi Delta just feels different. Another great song is Got My Mojo Workin
Two other muddy waters songs you could react to are: Rollin Stone (catfish blues) Got My Mojo Working Also, Muddy Waters performed Mannish Boy with the Rolling Stones. The video is on RUclips.
Love this riff falling on you like a ton of bricks! Muddy said there was a time when he had to decide wether he was gonna be a blues singer or a preacher and he chose the blues.Here he sounds like a blues preacher! This version comes from the late 70es but he had recorded it previously in the fifites with the band he had back then,with Little Walter on harmonica and Otis Spann on piano.Check the song "I´m ready" with that band,you can´t go wrong! Peace!
One of the true OG's of the Blues...the great Muddy Waters.This album was produced by Johnny Winter who also played guitar on it and you hear him doing the background screams in this tune.The title of the album came about when they were listening to the playback in the studio of the tracks and they knew they were hot so Muddy said '...these songs make me feel hard again' and the name 'Hard Again' stuck for the title.
The originators need to be reacted to! Take these for starters: Bo Diddley - Who do you love Howlin’ Wolf - Spoonful Elmore James - Something inside of me J.B. Lenoir - Down in mississippi
Super stoked you’re into the blues! My two favorites are Buddy Guy and Junior Wells, they did a bunch of tunes together too! Anyway, much respect. 🫡. (Also, I’m almost positive this song specifically is where Mick and Keith and the boys got the name Rolling Stones)
I think Muddy Waters given name is McKinley Morganfield, a name you might see in the songwriting credits on other songs, Johnny Winter was a big fan/friend and produced this record
From the movie Crossroads, regarding a kid thinking blues was something you had to do on an old beat up acoustic guitar: "Everybody knows Muddy Waters invented electricity!"
This whole album is great. I think it’s from 1977. Johnny Winter does a great job. They play the old songs, and Muddy gets his old energy back, and it’s just a great collaboration. “The Blues Had a Baby and They Named It Rock and Roll” is great, and “Can’t Be Satisfied” was covered by The Rolling Stones.
Mckinley Morganfeld, Chester Burnett and Willie Dixon were the holy trinity that was the foundation for all future super Rock Bands like Cream and Led Zeppelin. Hell, even The Rolling Stones got their name from Morganfeld.
I enjoyed your videos on the Rolling Stones songs. You may be interested to know that they came up with the band name from a Muddy Waters' song by the same name. They were huge fans of blues music, particularly both Muddy and Buddy Guy.
Great vid, thanks. I had a chance to see Muddy Waters in college and missed it. He didn't live more than a year. I caught a fantastic B.B. King show not long after. He lived 40 more years. Not claiming anything 🙃

Well well well well! Muddy Waters was The Voice. Next up try his "When the Eagle Flies" or "Bird Nest on the Ground" ruclips.net/video/bgAOC5pO1pY/видео.htmlsi=NrQOOx97hBkZDZ7M ruclips.net/video/Zlaf9CcnPfg/видео.htmlsi=x576RsPeWfL_kl4y
"...I make love to you... in five minutes time... ain't that a man?" Women: Yep, that sounds like a man, all right... Seriously, this track is amazing & the basis for a LOT of rock, metal, country, etc.

I am fortunate to have hear Muddy Waters perform this in concert!
Muddy Waters and T Bone Walker belong in every music collection
I got to see Muddy live around 78 or 79. He had it til the very end of his life.
I had the good fortune to see him in Memphis 77 or 78.
Howlin’ Wolf next! Love Muddy! 🖖🏼
The London sessions. With Howling, the Stones Charlie and Bill, Clapton,Windwood and Ringo.
Such a classic. The version in the Last Waltz film is a great watch as well. He had a real stage presence. But also one of the greats of Delta Blues, later moving to Chicago and being one of the pioneers of Chicago blues.
Johnny Winter is Muddy's hype man on this track, with all the yelling in the background. He's playing guitar too.

You should see him with The Rolling Stones live at the Checkerboard Lounge. It's amazing seeing them with one of their heroes
Muddy Mississippi Waters Live, SHE'S 19 YEARS OLD, DEEP DOWN IN FLORIDA, THE BLUES HAD A BABY.
Holy cow, take me to church ❤ Love the blues 💙🎵🎶💙🎵
Muddy Watters, John Lee Hooker, Howlin' Wolf - That's the Blues. The Rolling Stones got their name from this song where he sings 'I'm a Rolling Stone".
Arguably the most iconic and famous blues riff of all time.

I saw muddy live in the 70’s a wonderful memory. As you can hear Johnny Winter is getting right into it

I always loved the blues. I bought the Chess box set in the early 2000's. Muddy and Howlin' Wolf were my favorite's!
The originators need to be reacted to! Take these for starters:
Bo Diddley - Who do you love
Howlin’ Wolf - Spoonful
Elmore James - Something inside of me
J.B. Lenoir - Down in mississippi
The man is royalty!
Agreed
Muddy Waters. I don't know what I would do without it.
Super stoked you’re into the blues! My two favorites are Buddy Guy and Junior Wells, they did a bunch of tunes together too! Anyway, much respect. 🫡. (Also, I’m almost positive this song specifically is where Mick and Keith and the boys got the name Rolling Stones)
Yes band got their name from Muddy, but it was a song called Rollin Stone.
You need to check out “ the Blues had a baby and they called it Rock -N -Roll” by Muddy Waters !
I think Muddy Waters given name is McKinley Morganfield, a name you might see in the songwriting credits on other songs, Johnny Winter was a big fan/friend and produced this record
Man I hope you get into more Muddy, he is an icon ✌💖☮
I will
From the movie Crossroads, regarding a kid thinking blues was something you had to do on an old beat up acoustic guitar: "Everybody knows Muddy Waters invented electricity!"

They play the old songs, and Muddy gets his old energy back, and it’s just a great collaboration. “The Blues Had a Baby and They Named It Rock and Roll” is great, and “Can’t Be Satisfied” was covered by The Rolling Stones.
The next song ought to be Johnny Winter. He was an interesting character and excellent player.
Mckinley Morganfeld, Chester Burnett and Willie Dixon were the holy trinity that was the foundation for all future super Rock Bands like Cream and Led Zeppelin. Hell, even The Rolling Stones got their name from Morganfeld.
Legend!
My hubby loves this song! I hear it a lot.
Great cover by the Stones on Love You Live from El Mocambo show, sadly I was not there.
I enjoyed your videos on the Rolling Stones songs. You may be interested to know that they came up with the band name from a Muddy Waters' song by the same name. They were huge fans of blues music, particularly both Muddy and Buddy Guy.
This is an amazing song I love it❤, thank you Biz
Johnny "White Tornado" Winters on guitar.
🏹🎯 dead on narrative! Thanks Biz.
This was my favorite version. Tell em who he is Johnny!! Yeah !
That whole album is fire, one of the first tapes I bought as a kid.
Got to get onto The Wolf next, Biz.
Great stuff as usual by the way.
I had to tune in for this! Thank you
thanks for tunning in
Muddy is the Best!
That SWAG THO!
This is what you call real blues
Do the version of Baby please don't go or Mannish Boy with Muddy Waters live at a small blues club with a drunk Mick, Keith & Ron Wood of the Stones
Tell em Muddy!
The Rolling Stones covered this song; one of their favorites.
Great vid, thanks. I had a chance to see Muddy Waters in college and missed it. He didn't live more than a year. I caught a fantastic B.B. King show not long after. He lived 40 more years. Not claiming anything 🙃
Oops, 30 years.
You should check out his Muddy "Mississippi" Waters Live album.
It's really great! 🤙😎
Checkpoint reached for any first timer.
Unstoppable force. Steamroller.
😊❤
Just. the. best.
This is a fucking great song
This is iconic. These are the most basic Blues progressions there are.
❤
Wow, that was badass.

Always great to hear Muddy Waters or John Lee Hooker
No doubt George Thorogood heard this song a million times. "Bad to the Bone" has to be a homage to this.
There's no relation whatsoever but Redman did an excellent album called Muddy Waters that you should familiarize yourself with if you haven't already
Well well well well! Muddy Waters was The Voice. Next up try his "When the Eagle Flies" or "Bird Nest on the Ground"
