This is actually quite common, when it's your family you humanize them. Or get all these stories "your grandfather used to sing the blues like no other" As a kid you'll just think, "oh great...(old people music, yuck)" and maybe think it's redundant.
I think what makes this song so special is how raw it is. The guitar and harmonica are mixed perfectly to where they sound like one instrument. Muddy Waters’ voice gruffly hums over this kick ass instrumental while this guy is screaming his brain out in the background. This whole song sounds like he just walked into a bar and is performing it as everyone starts rioting. Timeless song.
Saw him with my brother in the early 60’s at Big John’s in the East End in Chicago. I’m 83 and still haven’t recovered!! Been a blues fan since’54. Elvis fan since’56. When I’m 103, I’ll still be listening to this song!!!

Muddy Waters recorded the original version in 1955, but he re-recorded the song numerous times during his lifetime with different musicians & various producers -- each take slightly different, but ALL bad-ass!!!

My dear now departed uncle on the funeral day of his lovely wife, said to me - "WHATEVER YOU DO IN LIFE - JUST DO GOOD - JUST DO GOOD" = teach your son that. I can still picture my uncle - now over 30-years ago - sitting in his lounge chair whilst stuffing tobacco into his pipe on the day of the funeral - his wife - my auntie, and him saying that to me.

My grandma listened to Mud daily. Before I knew my ABC’s I knew this song no lie. My grandma is 98 years old now when I go down south to see her she says, “play my blues for me”. I already know what that means. 😀 Great memories listening to this.
That is none other than Little Walter. He is playing harp. Legend has it. Chess records Was a family. They all played on each others sessions. True fact. Testimony of Keef. When the Stones got to visit and record at Chess studio , Muddy was not selling any records So Marshall Chess Let him paint the walls of the joint to help him out !
Gracious Lord, I invoke your boundless mercy to overflow in the lives of this cherished friend and their household. May your compassion heal any wounds, mend any brokenness, and fill their days with unending joy, love, and hope.
Met him backstage at Winter’s End festival a Out 1970. He and his band cool gentlemen. Then destroyed, total tight thrashing for about an hour. Most amazing guitar I ever saw. And I have seen a lot.
Just magical..I have a patient where I work who has lost most of his strength to perform daily tasks..He loves music so I often play it for him on my phone mostly UA-cam. One day I came across this song and he lit up like a firecracker..I must say now I play this song for him daily.. He's 77 years old and it's amazing how he muscle up the strength to snap his fingers when he hear this song..He even motions like he's playing the guitar..It's the sweetest thing ever ❤💙
Hello I thought you're story of your patient coming to live with this song was so nice & you seem really caring in your job,I just discovered this song while in bed,not very well and listening to a play which had this song in it and knew I had to look it up x
I was in a very low place when I first heard this, sleeping on a friend's couch. The last I heard Otis Spann, Muddy's band leader had died. Muddy had been in a car accident. It was not known if Muddy could ever play guitar or perform again. Then this came roaring out in the middle of a radio broadcast and I knew both Muddy and I were going to be OK. Damn this is great. Play it LOUD.
@Ben Williams And back then they called it Southern Bible belt Baptist church. This is what the concerts that get put on every Sunday morning sounds like in these churches. Except there are 1000's of Johnny W's called "deacons" who are responding( call and respond). The Blues started in church..
First heard (felt) this aged 14...now, nearly 70 and it STILL...'gets me...right... where I live'...'Muddy' ain't gone nowhere...he lives on in our Souls...with that awesome voice ...many thanx...
Hi there Mr. Front, I'm Fasil. I don't mean to judge or gatekeep, but considering your thumbnail, I just have to ask: are you lost? I get that Mr. Waters made stirring music, but I didn't think that a Black Man singing about the indignity of being called a "boy" would, you know, be your flavor of Mint Julep. Again, it takes all kinds, and I'm of a certain Percentage myself.
"One day????" So, Colin Powell, Barack Obama, Wes Moore, Tony Dungy, Tom Bradley, Harold Washington, Gen. Chappie James . . . . were all NOT respected in their day?
This was THE SONG that made the film "Risky Business" when Tom Cruise started his "party" at the house. Muddy was always kick-ass in person. I had the extreme pleasure of seeing Muddy live in my hometown of Dayton OH. He appeared several times at the downtown Gilly's and I was ALWAYS there. One of the most awesome blues shows ever! Muddy was a legend.
*Muddy Waters was 18 years old when he went into the studio to make this track, after it was complete he was every bit of a fully grown adult man about 39 years old*
was lucky enough to see Muddy n his band in 1972- Muddy wearin a gold suit, red telecaster, James Cotton- Harp, Pinetop on keys, Willie Big Eyes on drums- no one has topped their performance of the blues for me in the last 44 years.
peter penklis I would never go to a concert nowadays. Not worth the money, just to hear 20,000 people yelling over just the most popular songs of the band. I want to hear the obscure shit too, damn it.
Sounds like the experience was a jem in your memory. Hell I could envision it in my mind the more I listen to it. A dimly lit bar, the air slightly hazzy with cigarrette smoke while people are gathered around old wooden tables playing cards and drinking whiskey like its the 70's.
Friend of mine saw Muddy at the Key Club - Twin Cities - 1963.......he is 78 years young.....told me Delta Blues was "Country- Hick" to the majority of African Americans back in the late 1950-s - early 1960s ......
My favorite blues song of all time. The vibe is visceral, soulful and sexy. 🔥 The groove is pounding and hypnotic (Yes, it's repetitive, but there is joy in repetition). Muddy's vocal delivery is deliciously guttural. I just love the reactions from the "audience" -- WOO! YEAH! etc. They add so much to the primal quality of the performance.
I am a white South African almost 60 years old. Because of this Dude, I always had some Muddy Waters running through my lily white wains. Muddy is good. Kids like to play in it. Thank you Big Muddy Brother.
This is the 1977 version, produced by Johnny Winter, who provides the yells, screams, & affirmations. Muddy Waters recorded the original version in 1955, & re-did it several times with various producers during his lifetime, each one slightly different, but ALL bad-ass.....
My favorite part of this song has always been Johnny Winters yelling in the background. He has 1 job being ... Muddy's hype man and he does it well. (I know he produced and plays on the song, but you get what I mean.) This almost never happens in music today.
RIGHT ON! RAW MUSIC LIKE THIS WITH GUTS AND SOUL IS NO LONGER PLAYED OR TALKED ABOUT SINCE THE GEN Z, X V, Q WHATEVER BANNED IT ALL. WE CAN ONLY HAVE DRAG SHOWS NOW!

Mmmmmmman
cool as ice:::::::
that is Mr Johnny Winter, who produced this record and convinced Muddy to make it in the first place.
This is the 1977 version, produced by Johnny Winter, who provides the yells, screams, & affirmations. Muddy Waters recorded the original version in 1955, & re-did it several times with various producers during his lifetime, each one slightly different, but ALL bad-ass.....
The original dj kahled
This song never gets old......
yet it is probably one of the easiest to learn to play. The hard part is adding the feeling too it.
Its literally impossible to listen to this without tapping your foot!!
*Stomping.
While tapping and nodding my head lol
Literally tapping my foot and nodding my head as I type this comment
When I read this I was tapping my foot...
If you aren’t you should probably check your pulse.
People this is the blues. This how it’s done. People like Clapton knew it and still do. Without these guys we got nothin IMHO!
I couldn’t say it better
On Rhythm & Blues:
"That music is a chair. You can sit on it. It will hold you up."
~John Lennon
My favorite part of this song has always been Johnny Winters yelling in the background. He has 1 job being ... Muddy's hype man and he does it well. (I know he produced and plays on the song, but you get what I mean.) This almost never happens in music today.
It does happen
@@weedsome1719 sauce or didn't happen.
If you suffer from Low-T, this song has been proven to raise your levels without any harmful side effects

He shoots lines that will never miss now that's a man!!

My father used to play this for me when I was a boy. I still listen to it but now IM A MAAAAAAAAAAAN
Kyle Mckenna 🗣YEAHHHHH
The greatest blues song ever
I really don’t even consider this “blues” anymore. This is rock and lullabies.
No greatest song ever
Muddy Inspired the Rolling Stones, The Who, Beatles, Hendrix, Zepplin, Ozzy, AC/CD, Elvis...I can keep going...
FACTS AF
B-b-b-b-b-bad to the bone!
Eric Clapton, Jimi Hendrix, Janice Joplin, The Doors, Eric Burdon, Van Halen, etc.
Intoxicados rey jsjsjsjsjs
The Rolling Stones used to party with him on the South Side of Chicago in the 60's. My neck of the woods.
This song is GOOD to the bone!
Recorded live in studio. No AutoTune, no digital crap. Pure feeling.
All testosterone!
ABSOLUTELY! PURE
Music elitists ahahahaha. Fuckn cringe
@@budbringer8181 They were just pointing out the quality of the recording and the "human" vibes it gives.
@@firezera He was poining out that "ugh fuck this generation. I dOnT lIkE dIgItaL cRap". It's just cringe.
I love going into a quiet bar and pulling this up on the jukebox. The looks on peoples faces are priceless
RIGHT ON! RAW MUSIC LIKE THIS WITH GUTS AND SOUL IS NO LONGER PLAYED OR TALKED ABOUT SINCE THE GEN Z, X V, Q WHATEVER BANNED IT ALL. WE CAN ONLY HAVE DRAG SHOWS NOW!
@@ingusthedarkknight We also love the blues lol, it's just most music evolved. Phonk isn't even that popular compared to RnB or Rap.
@@lindanorris2455 What the fuck are you saying Jesse
@@Freezermansaccountno yeah the only people who like phonk are racist 14 year olds, and that is a pattern i observed
I was definitely born in the wrong decade! this is true music to my ears! @@lindanorris2455
This is my funeral song I ain't black but I may come back black God bless muddy waters
The blues dont give a hot damn what color u are. Hits the soul regardless♡
Steven Ward hell yeah

You sir can bring a guest to the cookout
@@Jendaminnx But the MEDIA promoting does
I never ever ever ever get tired of this song.
The man in the background is the original hype man 😂🙏🏽
"I'm a Maaaaannnnn"
"YEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAHHHHHH"
Decades later, the song still smokes! I believe that's Johnny Winter in the background.
I always thought so but I guess I should look it up. Per Allmusic Johnny Wintet is credited on the album Hard Again
dude cooked SO HARD on this song
