1001 Albums Summary

fav tracks: Hoochie Coochie Man, Soon Forgotten, Goodbye Newport Blues Thoughts: My first time listening to Muddy Waters, and an introduction to music under the umbrella of American Blues. The performances are close to flawless, if not perfect. I really like the piano playing; some of the melodic runs played on the piano sound like something Hendrix would play on the guitar. I guess little stuff like that highlight the influence that early to mid 19th century blues has on rock. Would like to hear more from Muddy Waters and other contemporaries. Very Nice.
