Muddy Waters Folk Singer


First time listening to the above - Chess LPs 45rpm - with a young Buddy Guy also playing. Absolutely fantastic album and wonderful sound quality - reminds me why I love vinyl.

I got the crappy no-frills Rebook CD version for something like $4.62 on Amazon, and it sounds INCREDIBLE. Would be hard to imagine it getting much better, and I'm curious whether others have compared this version to the pricier MoFi CD versions, etc.

The mofi and the sacd have smoother vocals as
the redbook can sound boomy at times IMO
and lacks the organized soundstage I get from the mofi

Yes, absolutely - music first and foremost. I am a huge buddy guy fan having seen him play at Glastonbury in the UK in the mid nineties and then again a few years ago in Brazil. Great to hear him at a young age playing with Muddy Waters.
First time I ever heard this album....my friend let me borrow it. I just so happened to have a bag of shrooms on me. So, I indulged myself and played Folk Singer.....One of the most unforgettable musical experiences of my life. I will never forget it. It really is a good album though.....
