Waters Muddy - The Muddy Waters Woodstock Album (CD)
€20,00Quick ViewAfter 27 years recording for Chess Records, this April 1975 album was Muddy’s last for the label – and I think it’s a bit of a forgotten gem.
PAUL BUTTERFIELD provides fabulous bluesy Harmonica throughout, PINETOP PERKINS plays piano (guest vocals also on ”Kansas City” & ”Caldonia”) with both GARTH HUDSON and LEVON HELM of THE BAND throwing in Keyboards/Accordion and Drums/Bass respectively. While it’s a straight-up blues album for the most part, Hudson’s Accordion playing gives some of the tracks a slightly swing/Cajun feel – and is a genuine surprise and treat for it too. Special mention should also go to Butterfield’s harmonica playing, which is fantastic throughout – clearly enthused by the mere proximity of the great blues man! In fact you can ’feel’ the love of each musician towards Muddy in each and every recording.
Five of its eight tracks are Muddy Waters originals topped up with three cover versions. The three covers are Jerry Leiber & Mike Stoller’s peach ”Kansas City”, made famous by Wilbert Harrison and done by hundreds of others since, while the other two are the Louis Jordan R’n’B classics, ”Let The Good Times Roll” and ”Caldonia”. Other contributions come from HOWARD JOHNSON on Saxophone, FRED CARTER on Bass and Guitar with BOB MARGOLIN on Guitar also – HENRY GLOVER produced the record.
This 1995 ERICK LABSON remaster has typically ace sound from one of Universal’s primo engineers, while ”Fox Squirrel” is a CD-only bonus track that is just that – a genuine discovery and bonus – astonishing that this McKinley Morganfield original was left off the record – nor ever used as a b-side?
”The Muddy Waters Woodstock Album” divides fans, but I feel it’s a forgotten gem that deserves a rethink. And like all of his 70’s recordings – I love it to bits.
