For the collector who knows that Muddy Waters is not background music, this page gathers vinyl and CDs from across his catalog, from Chess Records reissues to live sets that document the man in front of an audience.
The selection runs wide. The Chess Acoustic Sounds Series is represented by three titles: Folk Singer on 180g vinyl, Muddy, Brass and the Blues on 180g vinyl, and Real Folk Blues, all pressed to standards that honor the original recordings. For live material, Hoochie Coochie Man: Live At The Rising Sun Celebrity Jazz Club arrives as an RSD 2xLP on Justin Time Records, while Live At Rockpalast is a 2xLP from Made In Germany Music. If you want color in the collection, Breakin' It Up Breakin' It Down is pressed on clear vinyl by Friday Music. On the CD side, the MCA edition of London Sessions, I'm Ready on Good Time, and the Sony Music Live set round out the shelf.
Why buy from Relix
Relix has been writing about the blues and the artists who carried it forward since 1974. That history shapes what ends up in this store. We also produce the Relix Sessions series, live recordings produced by Relix and pressed to vinyl on the Relix Vinyl label, alongside titles like these that belong in any serious collection. Every title here is chosen because it fits the catalog we have spent decades covering, not because an algorithm flagged it.
Records are new and sealed. Pre-order titles show a street date on the product page and ship when the label releases them. Vinyl ships in protective packaging designed for LPs.
If this page is the starting point, there is more to explore. The Blues Vinyl Records collection covers the wider genre. Live Vinyl Albums and Records is the place for concert pressings, and Colored Vinyl Records and Limited Variants is worth a look if the clear pressing of Breakin' It Up Breakin' It Down caught your eye.
