    It is unbelivable how many GREAT harp players went through the Muddy Water's Band. It is a list of greats..from Little Walter,Paul Oscher,James Cotton, George Smith,Carey Bell, Jr Wells. I was lucky enough to see every one of them.Yes..an OLD blues fan.

      I got to talk & hear little Walter 2 times, 1958 and the second time 1962 in Salinas California, and through my life I got to play with Willie bigeyes Smith Pinetop Perkins Jerry Portnoy Calvin Jones Charlie Musselwhite John Hammond Junior and a lot of other musicians, I was very lucky in that department I’m still playing with local bands, im 79 what great memories 😎, I got to sit in with Boz Scaggs Eric Burdon John Lee Hooker and many more, me and Willie bigeyes Smith used to go for rides up in the Rocky Mountains when he played around Fort Collins Colorado

      Yes, and a side piece with Butterfield on "Father's and Sons".
      A great session with Mike Bloomfield on guitar. Sometimes the guest players are better than the regular band.

      Wow! All of them? Lucky you. I used to go to Boston and find the funkiest black, blues bars in the worst sections of the city. I'd go in by myself--only white in the bar-- only WOMAN, in the bar...and just groove on the music. No one ever bothered me...although I got some surprised looks. I was quite pretty back then too. But I was just there for the music. Everyone got the message and respected me. And I certainly respected them!

    I recently met Jerry Portnoy at an event in Portland. To this day, he still gets choked up when he tells the story of the first time he played with Muddy. Funny Thing: During the event I attended, Jerry, Magic Dick (J. Geils Band), Lee Oskar (War), and Mark Hummel (Blues Survivors) all played together on a song, each one taking a turn. Jerry went last and taught a master class in both simplicity and the power of anticipation...by holding a single, high note for two full verses! It was amazing to see these other masters, owning every inch of their harps, only to have Jerry blow them all away (figuratively and literally) with one, long note. The man is...just...WOW!!!

    Muddy Waters a musical journey felt like I was sitting in the backseat going along for the ride muddy was on his game he knew how to drive a band. You couldn't do nothing but respect that man when he walked out on the stage. Willie big eyes my favorite Blues drummer of all time incredible. James Cotton open the show I'm thankful to have been there to see hear them I believe it was 1979 thank you so much for sharing this.

    I love Muddy! I was lucky enough to see him live 9 times in the 70s and 5 of those times Johnny Winter jammed with him. Does it get any better than that? I think NOT! Both Johnny and Bob Margolin are still kicking ass all over the place and you should see them play whnever you can.

    That is a great version of Blow Wind. I saw Muddy play with these guys often. They were so on and so relaxed and the best live blues band around. JB Hutto and the House Rockers were hot too, but did not play east coast as often as Muddy.

    I came to hear Muddy and Jerry, but I'm absolutely BLOWN AWAY by the drummer. Has to be one of the coolest dudes of all time, and and I'm really diggin' how joyous he looks playing those drums!
    As a longtime Muddy fan and blues harmonica nut, I would have loved to have seen this performance live!!

      As I saw them guys many time, I can attest that le drummer, Willie" Big eyes" Smith & the bass player , Calvin" Fuzz" Jones, played together, a magic pair of aces. The Muddy waters style " Play with delay", as he said,sure they did, to the limit.

    My father loved the guitar so I naturally grew up loving the guitar. Today we have so many incredible blues guitarist that you just can't say that just one of them is the best. During the 50's, B.B. King was noticed because he did not use a slide to play the guitar. During that time, that's all you heard, slide guitar. He tried something new and the world of blues loved it. Thank you B.B. King and thank you to all musician's.
