Product Details

Without Muddy Waters, the map of popular music looks completely different. The Rolling Stones took their name from his 1950 recording, Led Zeppelin built riffs from his blueprints, and a generation of British Invasion musicians made pilgrimages to Chicago specifically to meet the man. This compilation gathers the songs that started all of it, the raw, electric transmissions from the Delta that rewired rock and roll before rock and roll even had a name.


As one of Chess Records' first artists, Muddy Waters helped transplant the beating heart of the blues from the Mississippi delta to the south side of Chicago, armed with a ferocious electric guitar and a songbook of some of the most enduring blues standards ever written. The Best of Muddy Waters, first released in 1958, collects 12 of his best, including "Rollin' Stone," "I'm Your Hoochie Coochie Man," "I'm Ready," "I Just Want to Make Love to You" and more. Bring home the sound of America's greatest blues label in high fidelity with the Chess Records 75th Anniversary Series. These audiophile reissues of classic albums and compilations from the Chess discography are remastered from the original analog tapes and pressed on 180g vinyl at Quality Record Pressings (QRP). Each disc is packaged in tip-on gatefold sleeves printed on high-grade board.
