Our Take

In the sweltering summer of 1960, Muddy Waters blew the roof off the Newport Jazz Festival with his electrifying set. For those lucky enough to witness it, it was a performance like no other. And now, thanks to this newly remastered release, we can all experience the magic of that legendary night.

At Newport 1960 captures Waters at the peak of his powers, his gravelly voice cutting through the air like a knife through butter. From the opening notes of "I Got My Mojo Working" to the rollicking finale of "Goodbye Newport Blues," every track is a masterclass in blues music. Waters' band, including the legendary Otis Spann on piano, provides the perfect backdrop for his soulful vocals.

But it's not just the music that makes this album so special - it's the atmosphere. You can almost feel the heat of the crowd, hear the cheers and applause that greeted each song. It's a snapshot of a moment in time when the blues ruled the world, and Muddy Waters was its undisputed king.

So put on your sunglasses, grab a cold drink, and let Muddy Waters transport you back to a time when music was raw, real, and oh so good. At Newport 1960 is a must-have for any blues fan, a reminder of a time when the music was all that mattered. Don't miss out on this classic album - your ears will thank you.
