Waters, Muddy

King Of The Chicago Blues 1951-1961 Vol. 2

After a first set devoted to the early life and career of Muddy Waters - alias McKinley Morganfield, a sharecropper on Stovall Plantation and a guitarist inspired by Son House and the Mississippi Sheiks - GErard Herzhaft presents this anthology dedicated to Muddy Waters' work from 1951 to `59. In that decade, his music - "carrying the murmur of the Delta, the ambiance of the Deep South, almost the aroma of barbecued catfish" - was preparing to revolutionize the European scene where Muddy Waters would be worshipped as a hero by the future Rolling Stones and Led Zeppelin.
