Customer Reviews of Charly Blues Legends Live, Vol. 2: Muddy Waters, Chicago 19
Hurry up and get this one while you still can Unlike most of his contemporaries, Muddy Waters has left behind several fine live albums, and this is one of the best. Clocking in at well over 70 minutes, it finds Muddy Waters in his mid-sixties, but sounding as confident as ever.
The crowd is lively without being too prominent, and Muddy is backed by his sublime latter-day touring band which featured drummer Willie "Big Eyes" Smith, harpist Jerry Portnoy, bassist Calvin "Fuzz" Jones, guitarists Luther "Guitar Jr." Johnson and Bob Margolin, and the great Joe "Pinetop" Perkins on piano.
The instrumentals and Muddy's little soliloquies have been kept in, which makes for a completely authentic concert experience, and the track list includes a couple of rare performances, including "They Call Me Muddy Waters", a great "Everything's Gonna Be Alright" (which is sung in part by Luther Johnson), and the slow, mournful "Lonesome In My Bedroom".
Other highlights include...well, the rest of the album, really. The fidelity is very good, and the magnificent band really shows how the blues should be played, with everything blending perfectly into a lean, gritty, muscular sound.
As I said, there are many live Muddy-albums, and some of them, like "Mojo" and the Newport concert, are truly great. This is one of those great ones.
Turn it up!
This is one of those rare records that i can listen to all the way through from the opening instrumental to the encore. i've listened to nothing but this record for weeks. It's that good. Great songs and great sound. This record faithfully reflects Muddy's sound in the mid- to late-1970s. If you buy one Muddy Waters record, buy this one, and turn it up!
the best muddy recording i have heard thus far...
I love it. A contender for the "only 5 cd's on a desert island" list. If you like Muddy Waters Live, don't miss this one. This was recorded in 1979. The entire show just "feels good". From the very start to the encore. I wish I could have been there.
