Our Take

Muddy Waters is back, baby, and he's bringing some Big Bill Broonzy vibes with him on this latest offering. "MUDDY WATERS Sings Big Bill/Folk Singer" is a delightful blend of blues and folk that will have you tapping your toes and nodding your head in no time.

The album kicks off with a bang on tracks like "Key to the Highway" and "Mopper's Blues," where Waters' gravelly vocals and masterful guitar skills take centre stage. His rendition of Big Bill's classics adds a fresh twist to these timeless tunes, giving them a new lease of life for a whole new generation.

But it's not all about paying tribute to the past - Waters also throws in some original tracks like "I Feel Like Going Home" and "The Same Thing," which showcase his songwriting chops and ability to craft a killer hook. The raw emotion in his voice is palpable, drawing you in and leaving you hanging on every word.

Overall, "MUDDY WATERS Sings Big Bill/Folk Singer" is a triumph for the blues legend. With its infectious rhythms, soul-stirring lyrics, and killer guitar solos, this album is a must-listen for any music lover, old or new. So sit back, relax, and let Muddy Waters take you on a musical journey you won't soon forget. Cheers to that, mate.

About the artist

Muddy Waters

Muddy Waters, born McKinley Morganfield in 1913, was an American blues musician who transformed the genre with his raw vocals and electrifying guitar skills. Hailing from the Mississippi Delta, Waters brought the heartache and hardship of rural life to the forefront of his music, earning him a reputation as the "father of modern Chicago blues." With hits like "Mannish Boy" and "Hoochie Coochie Man," Waters cemented himself as a pioneer of the blues, influencing generations of musicians with his distinctive sound. His soulful lyrics and gritty performances captivated audiences worldwide, earning him a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award and a spot in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Waters' influence can still be heard in the music of contemporary artists like The Black Keys and Jack White, proving that his legacy continues to resonate across genres. With his signature slide guitar and powerful stage presence, Muddy Waters remains a timeless icon of the blues, reminding us of the enduring power of music to transcend boundaries and connect us all.
