Rolling Stones did amazing cover of this song on their newest album Hackney diamonds (2023). Both versions are so damn good. By the way, this song gave inspiration to make the band's name out of this song.
It is freezing cold, the winter of 1962. The scene - a dingy flat in Edith Walk, Chelsea, London. A young man called Brian Jones is telephoned by a night club agent and offered a spot for his fledgling blues band. He accepts, then he is asked what the band is called, have you got a name? He hasn't. He starts to panic. This is a golden opportunity for him and his starving flatmates. Desperately, he looks around for inspiration, spots a Muddy Waters LP on the floor and quickly stammers out a name from the featured tracks. The song is 'Rollin' Stone'. The rest is history...........
stones suck: your entire business model revolved around exploitation: that of classic blues, and brian jones. The Americans had already surpassed what you'd be doing 20 years before you would even play a single show. That isn't to even say that the blues couldn't be improved as tom waits and beefheart would do just that: and as a plus they didn't do it for the sole purpose of a quick buck. Brian Jones was the only member of "your" band with any musical talent any fan of the stones is just a Jones fan at heart: you cant get what you want, sympathy for the devil or any other "good song" only appears that way because of Brian. So what did the stones do to repay him Kieth richards the trashy sonofabitch stole his girlfriend then kicked him out of the band: the band that he'd founded, hired the members for, and named. shitty band for shitty people just listened to the band from which they have stolen.
Not an inspiration, Brian has to give a name quickly on the phone and he saw the name on the Muddy Water cover on the floor, as simple. Keith said that they put the S at Stone cause of copyright.
Muddy did not die broke. He was doing well in his later years touring around. He wasn't crazy rich like the Stones, but he had a good life. His death made the national news. He was famous enough that you had to be an invited guest to go to the funeral. I know this as my father was one of his good friends. Much of the general public doesn't know him, but they know his music. It has often been used in commercials and movies in recent years.
+Николай Трегуэт It's kinda disappointing and ignorant when people say The Beatles created rock music- sure they helped popularise it but people are way too quick to forget these Blues/RnB artists who pioneered rock
@@theoneandonlyownage who even says The Beatles? They were almost a decade after Elvis, whose first recording is used for the "anniversary" of Rock 'n Roll. But while Waters was still playing electric blues, there were even more lesser known artists that were actually playing Rock, like Roy Brown and Lightin' Hopkins.

+Elena Lossio Brian Jones, blues lover and true founder of the Rolling Stones -- and the guy with the vision to get the Stones rolling -- also named the band.
In Keith Richards autobiography he tells it: They rang up to get a gig and the guy on the telephone asked what they were called. The call was costing money and they just saw a 'Best of Muddy Waters' Record lying on the ground. The first track was 'Rollin Stone'.
bigman25plus25 Keith Richards still did not know who Muddy Waters was at the time. Jagger and Richards learned everything they knew about blues and rhythm and blues from Brian Jones and Brian Jones' vast record collection (that Jagger and Richards in some interview here on RUclips make fun of). Brian Jones was finding the gigs and he gave the club owner the name Rolling Stones. Keith Richards was still an apprentice at the time. If Keith Richards said "we" in his book, he's got his history wrong, and, as usual, not giving Brian Jones his rightful due. Stones were created by Brian Jones (he recruited Richards and Jagger) and it was his vision of what the band should be that made the Stones into the great band that they became.
@@AtomicLobotomy You surely ignore that when Mick meet Keith in Dartford station he had Muddy Water album with him, they were about seventeen, few years before meeting Brian.
Hendrix and the Stones were inspired by this guy. Voodoo Child (Slight Return)'s bend here is prominent in the main riff, while the Stones named themselves after this song.
Everyone is talking about how this influenced Hendrix's Voodoo Child, but nobody has mentioned Catfish Blues? The Hendrix song Catfish is a direct take on this song. Voodoo Child is taken from Louisianna Blues.

Pretty good cover. Good album too. Can’t wait to see them this July
I originally heard Jimi Hendrix’s version when I was younger

That's the building of legends by a legend

i came here exactly for that, you made my day
The inspiration behind The Rolling Stones band's name!
Brian Jones inspiration
And behind Hendrix riff in VC and Kravitz in AYGGMW
Not an inspiration, Brian has to give a name quickly on the phone and he saw the name on the Muddy Water cover on the floor, as simple.
Keith said that they put the S at Stone cause of copyright.
@@Methilde sounds like inspiration to me....the rolling stones have covered some of his songs as well
@@LasLupin When he looked at the cover of the above album during an interview.
Muddy did not die broke. He was doing well in his later years touring around. He wasn't crazy rich like the Stones, but he had a good life. His death made the national news.

@Liam a rolling stone
@Liam it was Cloudy Waters
@Liam Muddy wine
😮
he should have been crazy rich....just goes to show that systematic racism really does exist
Just Muddy and his electric guitar: a piece of music history.
He wasnt an inspiration, he was a template, a blueprint, a secret recipe.
I must have listened to this song 3 times a day since I first heard it a few months ago. I just never get tired of it.
Seriously ? That's so nice. This track is amasing, I could keep listen to in loop for days without ever get tired of 😄
You can definitely hear Jimi Hendrix's inspiration for Voodo Chile in this song, especially in the riff
OsKarMike1306 its not Voodoo Chile,its Catfish Blues.
+OsKarMike1306 Catfish Blues error
@ anyone out there. Hendrix used a very similar riff on his 15 minute version.. But i can't remember who he copied.. Maybe B.B? HELP!!
In addition to being the best guitarist, Hendrix also had the best taste in music.
@Red Maybe not! Wash your mouth out. Mentioning Muddy in the same sentence. Back of the class!
This moves my soul..even today with all our fancy music editing technology, we cant emulate the pure raw emotion in these old blues tracks..
Its no wonder really, technology carries no emotion.
@@guzmanperez1109 You're saying this in a video of a man who is famous for taking acoustic music and electrifying it.
Most of rock is based on Chuck Berry and this guy. Amazing! Especially knowing that he played this back in 1950!
+Николай Трегуэт It's kinda disappointing and ignorant when people say The Beatles created rock music- sure they helped popularise it but people are way too quick to forget these Blues/RnB artists who pioneered rock
Николай Трегуэт В ранних записях Мадди звучит хорошо, но с Джимми Роджерсом, Уолтером и Отисом Спэнном он звучит великолепно.
why no mention of Sister Rosetta Tharpe???

Jeff Light have you never heard anyone claim that they did? I’ve heard it all through my life, total white washing of musical history
[Verse]
Well, I wish I was a catfish
Swimming in a oh, deep, blue sea
I would have all you good looking women
Fishing, fishing after me
Sure enough, a-after me[x2]
Oh enough, oh enough, sure enough
I went to my baby's house
And I sit down oh, on her steps
She said, "Now, come on in now, Muddy
You know, my husband just now left
Sure enough, he just now left[x2]
Sure enough, oh well, oh well
Well, my mother told my father
Just before hmmm, I was born
"I got a boy child's comin
He's going to be, he's going to be a rolling stone
Sure enough, he's a rolling stone
Oh well he's a, oh well he's a, oh well he's a
Well, I feel, yes I feel
Feel that I could lay down oh, time isn't long
I'm going to catch the first thing smoking
Back, back down the road I'm going
Back down the road I'm going[x2]
Sure enough back, sure enough back
Esta cancion daria el nombre a la banda de todos los tiempos....Rolling Stones, INCREIBLE PERO REAL.

Without these guys, there would be no rock music as we know it today. You know it and the rock muscians obviously know it.

I've just found out today, so I came to listen to this song.

You have to admit the stones and others took the ball and ran with it so to speak. They weren’t sneaky about it they adored these guys and we remember them in large part today because of the love and admiration the Brit rockers had for them.
So much emotion, gotta love the mud man
I love this music alot!! My teacher let us listen to this song because we were learning about music...and when I first heard this it was so AMAZING!!
I fell in love with this music in 2014 i showed it to my friend and they thought it was just okay i was so pissed
@@adonaiyah2196 the only way to circumvent this for your friends is if they like all music. I do, with the exception of stuff with objectionable lyrics. but then I sometimes stop liking the music I like ;)
Can't wait to listen the new version recorded by The Rolling Stones for their 'Hackney Diamonds' album!
Muddy waters is one of my favorite singers I have many favorite singers .
Es una de las 500 mejores canciones de todos los tiempos.
A guitarra de Muddy Waters é incrível. Sua voz também. É o Blues Raiz eletrificado magistralmente por Muddy.
the last second of this song is more explicative deep and full than 1000 hours of justin bieber and other garbage's music
hahahaha dam straight
How true Brother!
Rock n roll was realised at this point.
Que buena música!! Grandes musicos...
woooooow! blues

This is a great song based on Skip James Catfish Blues, the greatest fingerpicked blues song
It feels Iconic
Yeah... McKinley "Muddy Waters" Morganfield is the biggest name in the business of rock, blues and every kind of handmade modern music!
amazing music
Hey, This Would Make A Great Name For A Band...."The Rolling Stones" 😀🤘🏅🏆🎸❤️👍
so laid back with a kick like a mule.
A week ago at the buddy guy concert he told us that the Rolling Stones are named after this song
Well, I wish I was a catfish,
Swimmin in a oh, deep, blue sea
I would have all you good lookin women,
Fishin, fishin after me
Sure 'nough, a-after me
Sure 'nough, a-after me
Oh 'nough, oh 'nough, sure 'nough
I went to my baby's house,
And I sit down oh, on her steps
She said, "C'mon in now, Muddy
You know, my husband just now left
Sure 'nough, he just now left
Sure 'nough, he just now left
Oh Lord, oh well, oh well
Well, my mother told my father,
Just before hmmm, I was born,
"I got a boy child's comin',
Gonna be, he gonna be a rollin' stone,
Sure 'nough, he's a rollin' stone
Sure 'nough, he's a rollin' stone"
Oh well he's a, oh well he's a, oh well he's a
Well, I feel, yes I feel,
Feel that I could lay down oh, time ain't long
