Title: essential
Product review: Muddy Waters is one of the most popular bluesmen for a reason. He was a leading influence in the infusion of blues into rock and roll, and there are a number of songs on this CD that demonstrate that. The strongest blues song made into a classic rock track is "You Shook Me" written by Willie Dixon. If you want to be amazed, listen to Waters' You Shook Me and then Led Zeppelin's cover of it. There are also a couple of dubs of Son House songs like Death Letter and Walkin' Blues which are more powerful musically, if not as raw and emotional vocally as the originals. The only reason you should buy this CD instead of any other is the information that comes with it about Muddy Waters. A brief well-written biography is what makes this a necessary purchase for rock and blues fans alike.
