The Chess Box
(1990)
more music like this
by
Muddy Waters
The Chess Box does not contain all the great music Muddy Waters made. His talent and legacy are too large to be captured in a mere three discs, even one that spans from 1947 to 1972. This means, of course, that his legendary plantation recordings with Alan Lomax are not here, nor is his dynamic late-'70s comeback, Hard Again. But, truth be told, ...

The Anthology: 1947-1972

by
Muddy Waters
There have been countless collections of Muddy Waters' classic Chess material released over the years, but Chess began to whittle down the domestic catalog toward the late '90s. The triple-disc Chess box remained in print, but they added two single-disc collections that each covered a specific period in Waters' career at Chess. Then, in 2001, MCA ...

The Real Folk Blues/More Real Folk Blues [MCA]
(1999)
more music like this
by
Muddy Waters
Waters' The Real Folk Blues and More Real Folk Blues, combined here onto one CD, were not exactly random collections of tracks -- the quality was too consistently high for them to just have been picked out of a hat. Still, it was a pretty arbitrary grouping of items that he recorded between 1947 and 1964. In fact, they hail from throughout his ...

The companion volume to the first Waters entry in the series is even more down home than the first. Featuring another brace of early Chess sides from 1948-1952, this release features some essential tracks not found on The Chess Box. With the bludgeoning stomp of "She's Alright" featuring Elgin Evans's kickass drumming and the moody introspection ...

Luther "Georgia Boy Snake" Johnson
This was Johnson's final album before his death in 1976, and it was originally cut for Black and Blue (now reissued with three bonus tracks). While various tracks reflect the influence of Muddy Waters, Jimmy Reed and John Lee Hooker, Johnson's own inimitable vocals, raspy lines and tart guitar eventually create his own aura. He is nicely backed by ...

Muddy Waters
It's been a while since we've seen any unreleased material from Muddy Waters. You've heard all of this before, but the clarity of the sound, and the fact that Waters seems in pretty good spirits, playing with a crack band, makes The Lost Tapes an essential addition to any blues lover's collection, and a must buy for Waters devotees. The band is ...

A Proper Introduction to Muddy Waters: Mad Love

Muddy Waters
While it's true that this anthology of Muddy Waters material is limited to a single disc, for the price and the package it's a tough one to beat. Containing 24 tracks, it basically showcases the great bluesman's seminal early years when his rural Delta-styled blues made the move to the modern, raucous Chicago blues style, and covers the years 1948 ...

There are already several live Muddy Waters albums available, including some recorded during this era.

Chess is arguably the first label for blues, but behemoth Atlantic has enough of the stuff -- albeit a bit past its prime -- to still warrant a multi-disc box. This separately sold part of that package takes in some of the giants from the Illinois epicenter of urban blues. Two of the best, Howlin' Wolf and Muddy Waters, as well as latter-day Windy ...

John Koerner, Dave Ray and Tony Glover, who emerged from the same University of Minneapolis music scene that produced Bob Dylan, were the best white folk blues group of their day.

These are ten tracks of Waters pretty much on top of his game, with the bulk of them coming from 1965-68 and featuring Pinetop Perkins, Carey Bell, and Sammy Lawhorn in support. Three tracks from 1973 may sport better fidelity than the scratchier-sounding mid-'60s stuff, but every track's a gem no matter how you slice it. Cub Koda, All Music ...
