Muddy Waters 2014 - The Complete Aristocrat & Chess Singles As & Bs 1947-62 (4CD Box) [EAC FLAC] Muddy Waters Muddy Waters with James Cotton, 1971 Wikipedia: McKinley Morganfield (April 4, 1913 – April 30, 1983), known by his stage name Muddy Waters, was an American blues musician who is often cited as the "father of modern Chicago blues". Muddy Waters grew up on Stovall Plantation, near Clarksdale, Mississippi, and by age seventeen was playing the guitar at parties, emulating local blues artists Son House and Robert Johnson. He was recorded in Mississippi by Alan Lomax for the Library of Congress in 1941. In 1943, he moved to Chicago with the hope of becoming a full-time professional musician, eventually recording, in 1946, first for Columbia Records and then for Aristocrat Records, a newly formed label run by the brothers Leonard and Phil Chess. In the early 1950s, Muddy Waters and his band—Little Walter Jacobs on harmonica, Jimmy Rogers on guitar, Elgin Evans on drums and Otis Spann on piano—recorded several blues classics, some with bassist and songwriter Willie Dixon, including "Hoochie Coochie Man", "I Just Want to Make Love to You" and "I'm Ready". In 1958, he traveled to England, helping to lay the foundations of the subsequent blues boom there. His performance at the Newport Jazz Festival in 1960 was recorded and released as his first live album, At Newport 1960. Muddy Waters's influence is tremendous, not just on blues and rhythm and blues but on rock and roll, hard rock, folk music, jazz, and country music. His use of amplification is often cited as the link between Delta blues and rock and roll. The Complete Aristocrat & Chess Singles As & Bs 1947-62 (4CD Box) Artist: Muddy Waters Title: The Complete Aristocrat & Chess Singles As & Bs 1947-62 Format: 4 × CD, Compilation, Box Set Release Date: 2014 Country: UK Label: Acrobat Catalog: ACQCD7072 Genre: Blues, Chicago Blues, Country Blues Duration: 279:09 amazon.com Review by Stuart Jefferson: A compilation of Muddy Waters' great sides (both A's and B's) from the 1940's to the early 60's. Having 98 of his 45 rpm singles with great sound, plus an 18 page booklet that includes complete track information, complete recording details, and an essay on Waters and his music is just too good to pass up. This is the first collection that compiles all his Aristocrat and Chess singles in one nice, neat package. AllMusic Review by Steve Leggett: Muddy Waters brought a Son House-like Delta country-blues style north with him from Mississippi to Chicago in 1943, intent on making a living from music. Switching from acoustic to electric guitar in order to be better heard in the Chicago clubs and bars, Waters gradually assembled one of the greatest ongoing bands in the history of blues, and in the process, Waters and his band assembled the very template for classic Chicago blues. Waters first cut a track for the Chess Brothers in 1947, who released it on their Aristocrat Records imprint, and for the next two decades or so, Waters turned out the basic iconic catalog of electric Chicago blues for various Chess imprints, and those singles, both A- and B-sides, are collected here in this four-disc, 98-track set. Waters was an astute bandleader, and musicians like Little Walter, Junior Wells, James Cotton, Willie Dixon, and Otis Spann all contributed heavily to these sides, which sit at the very heart of Chicago blues, and signal the very point where the blues became modern and urban.
