And so it was at the Newport Festival in 1960, which had already been rocked by violent tumults even before it started. The allures of commerce raised its ugly head; the Mingus Band wanted their share and named a fee that the organisers were not willing to catalogue # 1449 fulfill. The echo came quickly: Charles Mingus and Max Roach organised their own festival in the near-by Cliff Walk Manor Hotel, and the “Newport Rebels” were born. Tempers esca - set contents 1 LP / standard sleeve lated during the Saturday night concert and commotion broke out when masses of drunk - en teenagers got into a fight with the security personnel. Newport was on the brink of dis - pricecode aster. SC01 In the midst of this explosive atmosphere, and standing on the (quite literally) rotten release date planks of the festival stage, Muddy Waters performed songs which captured his audience’s August 2010 ears and heart, and called attention to his unique Chicago blues. For many white people, barcode this night was the very first time that they heard and saw a live performance by a black band. Numbers such as I Got My Brand On You , Hoochie Coochie Man , and Tiger In Your Tank 4260019713834 are just as legendary as the members of the band, first and foremost James Cotton with his mouthorgan and Otis Spann on the piano, who is also to be heard as a vocalist in Goodbye original recording Newport Blues . About half-an-hour of highly concentrated, honest and passionate songs – July 1960 live at the Newport Festival just pure and unadulterated Muddy Waters’ blues. Die großen Musik-Events schöpfen ihre historische Bedeutung oft aus zusammen prallen - den positiven und negativen Energien. So auch beim Newport-Festival 1960, das bereits im Vorfeld von heftigen Turbulenzen durchschüttelt wird: Es lockt der Kommerz, die Mingus- Band will daran teilhaben und äußert Gagenwünsche, die die Organisatoren nicht erfüllen. Die Reaktion folgt prompt: Charles Mingus und Max Roach organisieren ein Gegen-Festival im nahegelegenen Cliff Walk Manor Hotel. Die ‘Newport-Rebels’ sind geboren. Der Atem der Rebellion soll sich im Samstag-Nacht-Konzert zum Sturm steigern, als Massen alkoholisier - ter Jugendlicher sich heftige Schlägereien mit den Ordnungskräften liefern - Newport steht am Abgrund. Inmitten dieser aufgeheizten Atmosphäre singt Muddy Waters von den sinnbildlich brüchi - gen Brettern der Festival-Bühne Songs, die als Weckruf für seinen einzigartigen Chicago- Blues in weit geöffnete Ohren und Herzen dringen. Denn viele Weiße erleben in dieser Nacht zum ersten Mal eine schwarze Band live. Die Titel wie I Got My Brand On You , Hoochie Coochie Man und Tiger In Your Tank sind ebenso legendär wie die Mitglieder der Band, allen voran James Cotton mit der Mundharmonika und Otis Spann am Piano, der im Goodbye Ne - wport Blues auch als Sänger zu hören ist. Diese runde halbe Stunde mit hochkonzentrier - ten, ehrlichen und leidenschaftlichen Songs zelebriert den Waters-Blues in Reinkultur. WWW.SPEAKERSCORNERRECORDS.COM | [email protected].

  • Chicago Blues Guitar
    McKinley Morganfield (April 4, 1913 – April 30, 1983), known as Muddy WatersWaters, was an American blues musician, generally considered the Father of modern Chicago blues. Blues musicians Big Bill Morganfield and Larry "Mud Morganfield" Williams are his sons. A major inspiration for the British blues explosion in the 1960s, Muddy was ranked #17 in Rolling Stone magazine's list of the 100 Greatest Artists of All Time. Although in his later years Muddy usually said that he was born in Rolling Fork, Mississippi in 1915, he was actually born at Jug's Corner in neighboring Issaquena County, Mississippi in 1913. Recent research has uncovered documentation showing that in the 1930s and 1940s he reported his birth year as 1913 on both his marriage license and musicians' union card. A 1955 interview in the Chicago Defender is the earliest claim of 1915 as his year of birth, which he continued to use in interviews from that point onward. The 1920 census lists him as five years old as of March 6, 1920, suggesting that his birth year may have been 1914. The Social Security Death Index, relying on the Social Security card application submitted after his move to Chicago in the mid '40s, lists him as being born April 4, 1915. His grandmother Della Grant raised him after his mother died shortly after his birth. His fondness for playing in mud earned him the nickname "Muddy" at an early age. He then changed it to "Muddy Water" and finally "Muddy Waters". He started out on harmonica but by age seventeen he was playing the guitar at parties emulating two blues artists who were extremely popular in the south, Son House and Robert Johnson.

  • Giving America Back the Blues
    GIVING AMERICA BACK THE BLUES OVERVIEW ESSENTIAL QUESTION How did the early Rolling Stones help popularize the Blues? OVERVIEW The Rolling Stones ultimately made their mark as the nonconformist outlaws of Rock and Roll. But before they were bad boys, the Stones were missionaries of the Blues. The young Rolling Stones — Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Brian Jones, Charlie Watts, and Bill Wyman — were white kids who hailed from working- and middle-class Britain and set out to play American music, primarily that of African Americans with roots in the South. In so doing, they helped bring this music to a new, largely white audience, both in Britain and the United States. The young men who formed the Rolling Stones emerged from the club scene fostered by British Blues pioneers Cyril Davies and Alexis Korner. These two men and their band, Blues Incorporated, helped popularize the American Blues, whose raw intensity resonated with a generation of Britons who had grown up in the shadow of war, death, the Blitz, postwar rationing, and the hardening of the Cold War standoff. Much of the Stones’ early work consisted of faithful covers of American Blues artists that Davies, Korner, and the Stones venerated: Muddy Waters, Howlin’ Wolf, Slim Harpo, Jimmy Reed. The early Stones in particular helped make the Blues wildly popular among young Britons. As the Stones’ fame grew and they became part of the mid-1960s British “invasion” of America, they also reintroduced the Blues to American listeners, most notably young, white audiences with limited exposure to the music. But almost from day one, the Stones were more than a Blues cover band.

Wadham: Muddy: The Story of Blues Legend Muddy Waters Book Review Muddy: The Story of Blues Legend Muddy Waters Muddy Waters was a tenacious young man who really didn’t like to take no for an answer. Growing up, he made instruments out of any- thing and listened to the legends around him like Son House play. Working in the fields by day and playing in music joints at night soon became unsatisfactory for Muddy, who packed up and moved to the big city of Chicago where music was pushing boundaries. Muddy Author played in lots of clubs and even tried to make a few records, but it was Michael James Mahin not until he captured his own unique signature sound that he was Illustrator able to make a record, sold out in twenty-four hours. Through hard work and determination, Muddy helped invent a style called Chicago Evan Turk Blues—the music that inspired generations to come.

  • TEG 74001 MUDDY WATERS Unk in Funk CD
    MUDDY WATERS “UNK” IN FUNK 1. Rollin’ And Tumblin’ 2. Just To Be With You 3. Electric Man 4. Trouble No More 5. “Unk” In Funk 6. Drive My Blues Away 7. Katie 8. Waterboy Waterboy 9. Everything Gonna Be Alright "Unk" In Funk, Muddy Waters' 1974 release, saw the Chicago bluesman further building on the electric blues of albums like Electric Mud (1968) and After The Rain (1969). It would be one of the last collections of original material that Waters would record with Chess Records, after a nearly 30-year association with the label. The record included a core line up of famed blues players who would remain Waters' backing band for the duration of his career, featuring Pinetop Perkins on piano, (Earl Hooker) Luther Johnson (The Nighthawks) and Bob Margolin on guitar, Calvin "Fuzz" Jones on bass, (The Legendary Blues Band) and Willie "Big Eyes" Smith on drums, (Bo Diddley, John Lee Hooker) with additional guest appearances by George Buford, Paul Oscher (Louisiana Red), and Carey Bell (Willie Dixon) on harmonica. Even at the age of 61, Waters sounds at the top of his game on "Unk" In Funk. His booming, powerful blues vocals dominate the album's fuzzy, electric orchestration. Overhauled versions of Waters classics like "Rollin' and Tumblin'" and "Just To Be With You" sound fresh as ever, and newer tracks like "Katie" and "Waterboy, Waterboy" are classic and organic additions to Waters' discography. Overlooked and underrated in its time, "Unk" In Funk is a pinnacle album from Waters' catalog. Format: CD Cat.
