Title: Most overrated blues musician
Review: Muddy Waters should be given a lot of credit for essentially being the first major blues figure to use electric guitar and a backup band. However, that doesn't even begin to justify the almost godlike admiration many blues fans have for him. I'm sorry, but I've just never been able to get into the man's music. Granted, "Hoochie Coochie Man" is a classic, but that's as much for Little Walter's harmonica work as anything else. Also, this is a very poor compilation of his work. They left out most of his best stuff- "Just Want to Make Love", "Got my Mojo Working", "I'm Ready", and "Rolling Stone" are all superb works by Muddy, and all of them are absent here. It's not that there's anything wrong with his music, in fact much of it is quite good, just don't expect it to live up to the legendary name of Muddy Waters.
