This world is really small and weird. I live in Brazil and I have known his songs for decades. But his granddaughter has no idea of the giant who was her grandfather.
This is actually quite common, when it's your family you humanize them. Or get all these stories "your grandfather used to sing the blues like no other" As a kid you'll just think, "oh great...(old people music, yuck)" and maybe think it's redundant.
The guy yelling in the back is the late Johnny Winter, one of the best blues guitarists of all time. He helped revive Muddy Waters career with a series of albums, including this one.
I think what makes this song so special is how raw it is. The guitar and harmonica are mixed perfectly to where they sound like one instrument. Muddy Waters’ voice gruffly hums over this kick ass instrumental while this guy is screaming his brain out in the background. This whole song sounds like he just walked into a bar and is performing it as everyone starts rioting. Timeless song.

Saw him with my brother in the early 60’s at Big John’s in the East End in Chicago. I’m 83 and still haven’t recovered!! Been a blues fan since’54. Elvis fan since’56. When I’m 103, I’ll still be listening to this song!!!
My grandma listened to Mud daily. Before I knew my ABC’s I knew this song no lie. My grandma is 98 years old now when I go down south to see her she says, “play my blues for me”. I already know what that means. 😀 Great memories listening to this.
Today is my boy’s 21st birthday & I’m sending this to him so when he opens his phone he can hear it first thing! Enjoy being a MAN my son! Be a good one!!! Proud of the man you’ve become 💛
My dear now departed uncle on the funeral day of his lovely wife, said to me - "WHATEVER YOU DO IN LIFE - JUST DO GOOD - JUST DO GOOD" = teach your son that. I can still picture my uncle - now over 30-years ago - sitting in his lounge chair whilst stuffing tobacco into his pipe on the day of the funeral - his wife - my auntie, and him saying that to me. CHEERS from AUSTRALIA
That is none other than Little Walter. He is playing harp. Legend has it. Chess records Was a family. They all played on each others sessions. True fact. Testimony of Keef. When the Stones got to visit and record at Chess studio , Muddy was not selling any records So Marshall Chess Let him paint the walls of the joint to help him out !
Met him backstage at Winter’s End festival a Out 1970. He and his band cool gentlemen. Then destroyed, total tight thrashing for about an hour. Most amazing guitar I ever saw. And I have seen a lot.
@Ben Williams And back then they called it Southern Bible belt Baptist church. This is what the concerts that get put on every Sunday morning sounds like in these churches. Except there are 1000's of Johnny W's called "deacons" who are responding( call and respond). The Blues started in church..
Hi there Mr. Front, I'm Fasil. I don't mean to judge or gatekeep, but considering your thumbnail, I just have to ask: are you lost? I get that Mr. Waters made stirring music, but I didn't think that a Black Man singing about the indignity of being called a "boy" would, you know, be your flavor of Mint Julep. Again, it takes all kinds, and I'm of a certain Percentage myself.
This is the 1977 version, produced by Johnny Winter, who provides the yells, screams, & affirmations. Muddy Waters recorded the original version in 1955, & re-did it several times with various producers during his lifetime, each one slightly different, but ALL bad-ass.....
Just magical..I have a patient where I work who has lost most of his strength to perform daily tasks..He loves music so I often play it for him on my phone mostly TH-cam. One day I came across this song and he lit up like a firecracker..I must say now I play this song for him daily.. He's 77 years old and it's amazing how he muscle up the strength to snap his fingers when he hear this song..He even motions like he's playing the guitar..It's the sweetest thing ever ❤💙
Hello I thought you're story of your patient coming to live with this song was so nice & you seem really caring in your job,I just discovered this song while in bed,not very well and listening to a play which had this song in it and knew I had to look it up x
I was in a very low place when I first heard this, sleeping on a friend's couch. The last I heard Otis Spann, Muddy's band leader had died. Muddy had been in a car accident. It was not known if Muddy could ever play guitar or perform again. Then this came roaring out in the middle of a radio broadcast and I knew both Muddy and I were going to be OK. Damn this is great. Play it LOUD.
My favorite blues song of all time. The vibe is visceral, soulful and sexy. 🔥 The groove is pounding and hypnotic (Yes, it's repetitive, but there is joy in repetition). Muddy's vocal delivery is deliciously guttural. I just love the reactions from the "audience" -- WOO! YEAH! etc. They add so much to the primal quality of the performance.
*Muddy Waters was 18 years old when he went into the studio to make this track, after it was complete he was every bit of a fully grown adult man about 39 years old*
Gracious Lord, I invoke your boundless mercy to overflow in the lives of this cherished friend and their household. May your compassion heal any wounds, mend any brokenness, and fill their days with unending joy, love, and hope.
Friend of mine saw Muddy at the Key Club - Twin Cities - 1963.......he is 78 years young.....told me Delta Blues was "Country- Hick" to the majority of African Americans back in the late 1950-s - early 1960s ......
That's the point... It's Johnny Winter, he's playing guitar and he produced the record. He wanted a "smoky, southern barroom night" kind of vibe for it.
I sure do miss the 70s and the 80s. The music today is not even the same. Sometimes I wish I could find a time machine and go back in time . Life was much easier , and everyone enjoyed life , do you love this beautiful songs?
My favorite part of this song has always been Johnny Winters yelling in the background. He has 1 job being ... Muddy's hype man and he does it well. (I know he produced and plays on the song, but you get what I mean.) This almost never happens in music today.
"One day????" So, Colin Powell, Barack Obama, Wes Moore, Tony Dungy, Tom Bradley, Harold Washington, Gen. Chappie James . . . . were all NOT respected in their day?
was lucky enough to see Muddy n his band in 1972- Muddy wearin a gold suit, red telecaster, James Cotton- Harp, Pinetop on keys, Willie Big Eyes on drums- no one has topped their performance of the blues for me in the last 44 years.
peter penklis I would never go to a concert nowadays. Not worth the money, just to hear 20,000 people yelling over just the most popular songs of the band. I want to hear the obscure shit too, damn it.
Sounds like the experience was a jem in your memory. Hell I could envision it in my mind the more I listen to it. A dimly lit bar, the air slightly hazzy with cigarrette smoke while people are gathered around old wooden tables playing cards and drinking whiskey like its the 70's.
This was THE SONG that made the film "Risky Business" when Tom Cruise started his "party" at the house. Muddy was always kick-ass in person. I had the extreme pleasure of seeing Muddy live in my hometown of Dayton OH. He appeared several times at the downtown Gilly's and I was ALWAYS there. One of the most awesome blues shows ever! Muddy was a legend.
Johnny Winter on guitar and the 'background hype'. From Beaumont, Texas. My neck of the woods. And James Cotton on harmonica, a legendary, underrated blues harp player.
Anthony-- Are staying 6 feet away from one another -wearing a mask & are you all using plenty of hand sanitizer to sanitize & clean your👂 ears after listening to Manish Boy by Muddy Waters 😁 April 22,2020
First heard (felt) this aged 14...now, nearly 70 and it STILL...'gets me...right... where I live'...'Muddy' ain't gone nowhere...he lives on in our Souls...with that awesome voice ...many thanx...

They must not be a full grown man. I reject their rejection .
Solid Snake the dislikes ARE from snowflakes.can't find a man In their 20's
Im not a man and I'm a feminist and I like this song...
was lucky enough to see Muddy n his band in 1972- Muddy wearin a gold suit, red telecaster, James Cotton- Harp, Pinetop on keys, Willie Big Eyes on drums- no one has topped their performance of the blues for me in the last 44 years.
Checkerboard Lounge on 47th street
Lucky guy
peter penklis I would never go to a concert nowadays. Not worth the money, just to hear 20,000 people yelling over just the most popular songs of the band. I want to hear the obscure shit too, damn it.
Sounds like the experience was a jem in your memory. Hell I could envision it in my mind the more I listen to it. A dimly lit bar, the air slightly hazzy with cigarrette smoke while people are gathered around old wooden tables playing cards and drinking whiskey like its the 70's.
peter penklis U lucky👈
I played this song for my son and he became my dad
😂😂😂😂
I played this for my dad and he became my son 😎
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂👍💯👍
Nobody cares
Lol
I never ever ever ever get tired of this song.
Decades later, the song still smokes! I believe that's Johnny Winter in the background.
I always thought so but I guess I should look it up. Per Allmusic Johnny Wintet is credited on the album Hard Again
tha inventor of Rock-n-Roll Blues
Thanks to Johnny Winter for rekick starting Muddy Waters career
Any young boys thinking about becoming a woman better listen to this and grow a pair!! 💪🏻
This song never gets old......
yet it is probably one of the easiest to learn to play. The hard part is adding the feeling too it.
We all need a hype man in back cheering us on
Hoochie coochie man..yassss!!!!😁

The greatest blues song ever
I really don’t even consider this “blues” anymore. This is rock and lullabies.
No greatest song ever
My favourite track...ever...of anyone...
I'm 36 and nobody understands how all I can listen to is the blues. Muddy, Albert King, BB, SRV, John Lee Hooker.... I was just born with the blues.
Same here. 😎
Any recomendations to newblie in blues world, personliy i love this song
I love it. Robin Trower said something great about it, but his guitar does the singing

This was the start of rock n roll indeed ..RIP MUDDY WATERS.Also I guess the guy in the background was the first hype man sorry flavor flav
Johnny Winter in the background.
Quite a badass dude ,himself.
@@MrTheHillfolk yes he was
If you suffer from Low-T, this song has been proven to raise your levels without any harmful side effects
lol
😂😂😂
He shoots lines that will never miss now that's a man!!
Lol!!!!
No joke man mine spiked after this
This individual has made an invaluable contribution to rock and roll music-there's no question about it!
This was THE SONG that made the film "Risky Business" when Tom Cruise started his "party" at the house. Muddy was always kick-ass in person. I had the extreme pleasure of seeing Muddy live in my hometown of Dayton OH. He appeared several times at the downtown Gilly's and I was ALWAYS there. One of the most awesome blues shows ever! Muddy was a legend.
at the end you can hear muddy say 'cut that there' meaning 'put that version we just played on the record.' He knew they had just nailed it
He said “got that there” listen again
Yes, Jonathan you need to listen again
You can also year Johnny Winter say "Cut that motherf*cker!"
@@BenWillyums Muddy didn't say cut that one what are you talking about
i've heard it a thousand times, and it still put the hairs on my neck up! pure soul.
ME TOO!
Очень интересно о чём песня?
Johnny Winter on guitar and the 'background hype'. From Beaumont, Texas. My neck of the woods. And James Cotton on harmonica, a legendary, underrated blues harp player.
This is badass
Man, so fuckin more than badass.
oh ye-ah
Ain't that a M A N... Cyndy Lou in Alabama.
Screaming.... YEAAAAAAAH! or WOOOOOOOO! Ya man!
abso-fucking-lutely!!
My father used to play this for me when I was a boy. I still listen to it but now IM A MAAAAAAAAAAAN
Kyle Mckenna 🗣YEAHHHHH
The man in the background would be me if I had Muddy singing in front of me
I concur
You look so beautiful, I tried to stalk you on FB.
@@sinisterp3339 Haha!
@@humansnotai4912 😁
😂😂
This brings tears to my eyes every time. That passion can't be faked.
I played this song during quarantine , my house is full of people now.
Anthony-- Are staying 6 feet away from one another -wearing a mask & are you all using plenty of hand sanitizer to sanitize & clean your👂 ears after listening to Manish Boy by Muddy Waters 😁 April 22,2020
Sheila Davis, hahaha that’s true .
this song was stolen by george thorogood
I thought Bo Diddley wrote it. I think George had some agreement with them.
I've had this album since 70's and i am still listening in quarentine in the Philippines. Take Care.
First heard (felt) this aged 14...now, nearly 70 and it STILL...'gets me...right... where I live'...'Muddy' ain't gone nowhere...he lives on in our Souls...with that awesome voice ...many thanx...
Johnny Winter is Muddy's hype man.
YAH!!!!! Whooooo!!!! I KNOW THAS RIGHT!!
These two together are magic!
😊😊 that mans hollering and screaming in the background they was in there getting lit😂❤
