Muddy ist KING, especially int the 70s! So many great live performances! He always had the best musician in his band. I love Carey Bell on the harmonica! He is a blues super star by himstelf! So geat! Thanks for uploading!
It’s so good to see my good friend willy big 👀 smith I was fortunate to play with him, Calvin Jones, pinetop perkins & bob margolin, in Denver & greely blues festival, took him for rides up the Rockies, talked about life, he would drive all the way to Chicago with out stopping, miss him a lot
I am glad to be able to working my way back to where their Mojo evolved ... thanks to footage like this .. and really the more I learn about him and his companions . the bigger it gets :)
Thank you muddy for getting me into the blues all those years ago.....this used to blow my mind every time way back then...I would stare at the cover for ages with my imagination running wild....simply one of the best...!!!!
I can't remember the source now - maybe Muddy's long interview in Living Blues, or maybe a Cotton interview - but Muddy apparently kept a complete 'backline' of amps and instruments for his bands to use in case their own stuff ended up in the pawnshop or just wasn't up to snuff. Supposedly the Fender Bassman Cotton was using in the Newport video was Muddy's, and I'd guess this may be the same amp.
Thank you Paul! I only wish there was more - obviously Muddy had just played something on guitar before Mojo, but that was edited out of the final program. The program also featured Count Basie, Jack Teagarden, and others, and I'll post some of those clips soon.
wonder if they did a part 1 and 2. the speed picks up a lot after the cut in cottons break, and would be strange if that happened. im sure the last part is from the second version of the song.
Muddy almost comes off like he's preachin! i guess he is,he's preachin the blues...playing music is about having fun,and they certianly are,just check out ol Willie!
as a British teenager with a short wave radio often heard Willis Conover but this is first time I've seen him, unlike Muddy who I saw in London this year
Ah, the spring of '63, when Kennedy was still president and all was right with the world. But the audience - and the announcer - seems shocked at just hot Waters and company knocked this one out. They may have thought "let's welcome" someone more like Louis Armstrong. But this was far more edgy. At the end, the poor MC looks quite flustered at the unexpected raw energy he just unleashed!

Wow… my granddaddy Jimmie Lee Morris on the left on bass 🎸❤
muddy and spann looks great, and willie, peewee, cotton, jimmy lee morris, what a band.
Muddy, Otis,James etc it is a wonder the stage did not collapse with the weight of so much talent.
Is Muddy looking totally bad-ass, or what! They all sound utterly bad-ass, too. God, I love this music. Thanks so much for posting.

60 yrs ago and considering the recording age of Tv /audio, This is a hidden jem.

Eux ils avaient la classe, le style et le talent et ils jouaient de la musique.

the drummer is having so much fun drumming 😄😄
Willie 'Big Eyes' Smith! I saw him in the late nineties in the Netherlands!
It's really great that people are posting classics like this 5 Star!!! :)
Man, that is sooooo good!

Muddy Waters in Chicago - 1963💕
Thank you Paul! I only wish there was more - obviously Muddy had just played something on guitar before Mojo, but that was edited out of the final program.

Willie looks like son Kenny ! Thanks for this visit in Olympus.
This is real legend brilliant.thank you Muddy Waters the real Blues Master(rip)

México
The TRUE Blues Don!!!😎😎😎
GREAT just GREAT !!!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Very enjoyable version. The segment showing the drummer was especially fun.
thrilling...thank you very much.
Killer stuff..... pity they edited out half of Cotton's solo though? Thanks for posting this! Fantastic.
thanks for posting!
Thanks Michael much appreciated

Man, Muddy's really gettin into it!
This is a fantastic piece of video. It's only a shame the music is about a half a second out of sync with the vocals on the film.
I'm amazed that Willie plays with brushes instead of sticks on this song - NOBODY plays "Mojo" with brushes, but he made it sound great!
Muddy almost comes off like he's preachin! i guess he is,he's preachin the blues...playing music is about having fun,and they certianly are,just check out ol Willie!
thanks, very cool.. very fine!
as a British teenager with a short wave radio often heard Willis Conover but this is first time I've seen him, unlike Muddy who I saw in London this year
EXCELLENT!!!!
Awesome!
Great , BUT they cut Cotton's solo! TERRIBLE edit is correct!
I'm pretty sure this is a post newport version. it's cooking as usual.
una sera di tanti anni fa entrando in un locale (l' Ottocento) sentii questo brano erano gli Easy Blues
I wasn't there, but wasn't the Fathers & Sons concert at a different venue, The Auditorium Theater? That's what's listed in the various discographies.
