    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!!!

    R.L. Burnside, and I split sets with the Legendary Blues Band back in the Fall of '86 in Wichita, Kansas. Sad Muddy wasn't around, though they were great, and very cool people.
    When they left town after the gig I'll never forget looking out a window, and seeing the drummer Willie "Big Eyes" Smith standing out in the cold filling up their vans gas tank so they could head back to Chicago. I wondered how many thousands of miles they'd all traveled to give everyone their great music....and with R.L. for another 8 years I was beginning to be a small part of it...I felt lucky.

      I think I saw him 15 times, perhaps more. When I remember one of these concerts, the first thing to come is that heavy, huge, deep soud coming from Calvin Jones and Willie Smith. The band litterally sat on that sound. Heaven. And the magic " delay".

    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.

      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.

    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.

    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.

    This music, right here, is where bluesicians, and the like, get to sharpen their pencil, and do some good quality woodsheddin' ! This is the school of hard knocks. Rhythmical unity, the pocket, takes precedence. The dialects, of the blues, have to be earned. In most cases (not all) it is a life lived. Muddy was a pioneer who helped pave the way...and the Chess brothers had great ears. This is great American Music!!

    I've been a fan of the blues since the mid 60s when I first heard The Paul Butterfield Blues Band. I've always liked Muddy but it's only been the last few months that I've really devoted time to listening. I'm a near life long Albert King fan.
    Anyway, I've owned "Muddy Mississippi Live" for years and what's always stood out to me is the drum work and of course piano. I've long been a Pinetop Perkins fan.
    Who are the guys in this lineup? Of course I know Pinetop.
