Blues for Aficionados


I have found that postings music is a good way to listen to all the music in your collection.  I have neglected the ultimate source of much of the music I post.  This tread corrects that oversight.  All Blues post are welcome.  I will concentrate on the Delta.

"Skin Tight"; that was my cue to find that gal in them skin tight white britches, and git on the dance floor; "The Bump" was the only dance I mastered.

FOLK SINGER

James Cotton(harmonica), Otis Spann(piano), Willie Dixon(bass), Buddy Guy(guitar)
MCA Chess    1963-64  /  1999

The title is a misnomer if ever there was one.  As the notes point out, this was an attempt to cash in on the 'Folk Music' craze of the times.  The Kingston Trio and Peter, Paul and Mary type music. 
This CD is really just Muddy playing the Blues.
