MUDDY WATERS Electric Mud (1996 US 8-track CD album - this is the
infamous 'somebody-put-something-in-the-Waters' album, originally
released in 1968; a relative hit for Chess, it features the exalted
bluesman bellowing over psychedelic arrangements that owe more to
Steppenwolf than Willie Dixon - Waters himself complained that the
drums were 'too busy' and the lead guitar sounded like 'a cat's meow'
[!!]; a shame - we think it rocks! Sealed picture sleeve)
