Well, the roots is the African music of the Africans brought to America from mid-16th to mid-19th century. They used to sing and play on the plantations, keeping their traditional African music alive. And in the early 20th century black musicians developed blues, rhythm and blues (R&B), jazz. But Muddy Waters were a great influence in music history. And they had class.
@@bluetheory2 I took it down.. We owe everything to eachother here...25 years of research, I love Africa.. Especially Nigerian xylophones.. How about this... Gangster rap pure African roots... no influence by whites..
James Cotton is pluggggggeeddd in and possibly if touched even gently nudged could cause severe electrocution. Cotton was on the Nirth West side of the Cross roads but he was also 2 and a half minutes late and being situated on the wrong side and corner. Those Dam Crossroads.
@@juanitawilliams6631 Looks like James Cotton playing harmonica. While he played on most of Muddy's Chess recordings throughout the 50s and many in the 60s, Little Walter left Muddy's live group early in the 50s to lead his own band.
no shit.....Saw James Cotton , Muddy Waters and Johnny' 'fuckin" Winter all on the same stage Boston Music hall 1976 I think it was....all three were touring together
It seems like when they are givin their best they have to look their best. Plus I have never seen a colored man or woman NOT dressed up 'tight' at one of many serious gatherings, such as church, holidays, births and death gatherings, unlike the 'white' gatherings of the same types it's not at all unusual for t-shirts, sweats- etc. to be worn and thought nothing of those doing so.
I saw Muddy Waters do this at the first ever Blues Festival in Chicago in August of 1969. A great one day free festival. Willie Dixon, Big Mama Thornton, Koko Taylor, Junior Wells, Luther Allison, Sleepy John Estes, Little Milton and more. It was incredible. Muddy Waters ended the day with this song and had the crowd in such a frenzy, he did the song twice.
Wow man that must of been a honor to see these gentlemen perform during a beautiful era of music. unfortunately I was cursed to be born in the 1990s when music is at its death bed.
That was a good summer for music and people in general. I remember a "Blues" Woodstock festival that was happening somewhere that same summer. Peace, from White Lake, NY
I have another version of this song running in my head, but can't remember whose. Some day I need to dig out my Otis Spanning LP's and digitize them. He doesn't seem to have much stuff online, but I remember he was pretty good.
When I was growing up, every weekend the grown folks had the house rocking with bb King, muddy waters, howling wolf, lightning slim and the likes, it was blues city, not to mention the food, card playing, dancing and of course the liquor. Those were the days. I can just see them now, those old timers having a rocking, blues time. For my family members that have pass on, this cut and all your favorites are for you; love ya all and Rest In Peace ☮️.
I was an underground seamstress and met many legends. Didn't know their contributions with guitars harmonic and drums after they died. Shout out to the Kingston Mines and Chicago Blues Festival. Buddy Guy is the Headliner act for 2024's Blues Festival.
It makes me sad to know there won't be Bluesmen like these in the future. In the wee small hours of the night we huddled around this music in awe and reverence... I still do today at 73. My mojo don't work as good as it once did but that don't keep me from trying. 🎼🖤
Im 57 and listening to this for over 40 yrs .. to see this perfomance really is a blessing!! brings a tear to my eye its SO fucking good ... God Bless !!!
Yes I do...just not nearly as well as this LOL! I don't know if you're a guitar geek like me, but this is the only single-cutaway, left-handed Gretsch Country Gentleman I've ever seen.
These guys tear it up!!! That is about as intense a song I have ever heard from guys sitting down- I don't think it is possible to do a whole set like that standing up! Everybody is great, but the harp player is unbelievable!!just knocks cinder blocks out the wall!!
Easily one of the top 3 harmonica performances bro and the way this band seemlessly blends all their playing together and sings together smh truly a work of art . Nothing like the blues I’ll tell you that much 💯
One of my favorite things about Muddy is that he’s not just a great guitar player, but he has other fantastic musicians with him, and he really lets them shine. He played with some of the best harmonica players ever, Little Walter in Junior Wells being my favorites.
Absolutely love it! Pure rock n roll. The man on harmonica is playing his guts out... plus I love the face Muddy makes when he says 'I got a gypsy woman' :D priceless
That ain’t no rock-n-roll. That be Chicago Electric Blues. I love both art forms but please don’t mix them up. Not criticizing the writer- they may just be too young to know the difference
We may be 46 years young , but we sure know the difference between the blues and rnr. Without the blues there'd be no rock n roll. I meant that this is the true spirit of rock n roll, and that to me transcends all barriers. If this is so important to you, then yes ofc this is Chess Records Chicago blues, along with Howlin' Wolf, Willie Dixon, Chuck Berry, Bo Diddley etc.@@johnknott6539
Every single player here is so fucking tight!!! from the Harp guy, to the drummer and the guy on keys as well as the whole call and response thing and as always, Muddy is on point. No downside to the apart from the guy at the start and the end
You can tell that everyone of them is having an awesome time while playing this. Love the sober, but at the same time I-know-I'm-kicking-ass-over-here pose that the drummer has.

@@tangwaye I listened to both. I completely disagree. The harmonica has so much more feeling to me with the range of the microtonal bends which the piano lacks. Cheers though for the recording - was a great tune still!
@@swinginonthespiral8765 it is just my feeling, i feel more emotions through organ than through harmonica, i didn't tell you to agree with me :) And i really don't say that this is bad, i just say that the jimmy smith version is more my kind of music and has more soul to me ( sry for my english , i am afrench guy not really fluent in english ), but the jimmy smith version has really more groove and the muddy waters version is more bluesy.

Love the way James Cotton jumps out of his chair. All that energy runnin' through him. Tight, tight band. Whew!
I JUST said the same thing! Wow! I've got goosebumps everywhere. Whew! Ha!
James Cotton is pluggggggeeddd in and possibly if touched even gently nudged could cause severe electrocution. Cotton was on the Nirth West side of the Cross roads but he was also 2 and a half minutes late and being situated on the wrong side and corner. Those Dam Crossroads.

Is that little walter playing on this song ?

It is in almost all muddy songs, except for the super early years, until coming out of Mississippi to Chicago and he linked up with Lil Walter.
Yes, James Cotton
Holy mozes now thats some band backing him up
That’s an all star cast!
That's one hell of a backup band. Damn
James Cotton on Harp is killin it! He still playing gigs.... saw him 2014! Amazing! His mojo is still working
not anymore R I P
JamesVibe haha yeah his mojo is still working alright
He was alive and playing after throat cancer took his singing voice; gigs in 2014 would have been very near his last, as he died in 2017.
Isn't that Little Walter on harp?

One of the best harmonica performances every recorded.

You damn right
for us newbies,... who is playing the harmonica?
Muddy and his band are really firing on all cylinders here !! A blistering performance, Phenomenal !!!
Fucking hell, the intensity they deliver right here is downright superb. Every single one of them are incredibly talented musicians.
It's funny what people say "is on fire!" these days, they should check out this harmonica player... god damn!
James Cotton is essentially the Jimi Hendrix of the harmonica

no shit.....Saw James Cotton , Muddy Waters and Johnny' 'fuckin" Winter all on the same stage Boston Music hall 1976 I think it was....all three were touring together
Seen Winters and Cotton... missed Muddy. But those 3 were a thing for the longest time. Especially with Johnny producing their records.

The Delta accent. John Lee Hooker sang “boyn” for ‘burn’

These guys are unmatched today. Really great talent and music.
It’s June 2023. They’re still unmatched!!!!!
They just don't make music quite like this anymore. Muddy was probably the best blues player there was.
Most rock n rollers could never hold a candle to these guys. Gutsy, tight, and kick-ass!
That harmonica is hot fire
Muddy Waters always had such hot bands. James Cotton, Otis Spann and the drummer just killng it here.
