Episode #245 Life and Legacy: The Muddy Waters Story
In this extended deep-dive, we explore the life, music, and legacy of Muddy Waters—the man who electrified the Delta blues and laid the foundation for rock ’n’ roll. From his early days on Stovall Plantation to his rise in Chicago with Chess Records, we trace his journey through iconic recordings like ‘Hoochie Coochie Man’ and ‘Mannish Boy,’ his groundbreaking performance at the 1960 Newport Jazz Festival, and the transatlantic collaborations of The London Muddy Waters Sessions.
We’ll break down Muddy’s guitar style, gear, and slide techniques, hear stories of his legendary band with Little Walter and Otis Spann, and map out how his music influenced artists from the Rolling Stones and Jimi Hendrix to Led Zeppelin and beyond.
