MUDDY WATERS
The Best of Muddy Waters
2025 Europe Ltd. Edition reissue

Having a hard time getting up and going this morning, and I suppose this isn’t helping. 😂

Saw this in the used bin the other day (who the hell disposes of Muddy Waters records?!?!), and I couldn’t resist.

Ten years ago, I really didn’t own that many blues records. However, over the last decade I have really started to accumulate a LOT of them. Other than Lightnin’ Hopkins, Leadbelly, and John Lee Hooker, there’s no artist I have more records of than Muddy.

This collection SOUNDS really good. I was very pleasantly surprised by that. It’s borderline audiophile to my ears, and I wish all blues reissues took the same aural care as this one does.

Sail on, my little honey bee.
Sail on.

Jimmy Reed - "Bright Lights Big City" (1961)

Another cool album my parents played a lot when I was a child. These things tend to stay with you for the rest of your life.

My pick for this week's #MusicWomenWednesday is a video from the 1967 American Folk and Blues Festival. This is Koko Taylor doing a live version of her great hit from the previous year, backed by a stellar group of musicians including Little Walter on harmonica, Hound Dog Taylor on guitar, Dillard Crume on bass and Odie Payne on drums.

This line-up even visited Finland, playing a show at Kulttuuritalo in Helsinki on October 12, 1967.

Studebaker John - Tell Me So

Honey if you love me you got to tell me so
I said, Honey if you love me you got to tell me so
'Cause that's one thing, oh baby, that I just don't know

HOWLIN’ WOLF
Evil
1977 U.S. reissue

A little Chester Burnett on a wet, raw nasty day outside.

I knew on my ride home today that this was what I was going to listen to once I got home.

There’s never a bad time for HOWLIN WOLF, but today is DEFINITELY a good time for Howlin Wolf.

One of MANY records of his I have, and there’s no bad or underwhelming song on any of em.
Dude was a master, and one of the ten most important artists in the history of popular music.
And no, I did not stutter.
