If anyone is interested, an album comes out this summer of the Stones and Muddy Waters at a club in '81.

I'm a Howlin' Wolf guy. The rocking chair album FTMFW.

Oh, and Willie Dixon is, if not god, certainly a lesser deity.

Muddy Waters... Folk Singer

one of the greatest debut albums ever. Also a marketing genius as when that album was released blues were FAR from popular, by labeling it a folk album it sold and people "discovered" the blues.

Very interested in the stones/waters show. Any details?

Is the Hill Country Blues and not really the Delta Blues. I actually prefer the hill country style. Junior, RL, Otha Turner, Mississippi Fred McDowell, Charles Caldwell. I guess you could consider NMAS closer to that style too.



As far as Delta style, currently it's probably T Model Ford.

Yea i know he's one of those hill fellas, and I think I prefer that style a little more, but it is splitting hairs for me really, because I'd rank Mississippi Blues as a whole as my favorite category of music.

And plus my grandfather's name was R.L., and it didn't stand for anything ha.

Yeah I wasn't trying to bust chops but the OP did say Delta Blues.

I was really into it when I was living up there and I do miss the exposure to it.

BTW, my great uncle's name was R.D. and it didn't stand for anything either. In the army, the kept bugging him about it and he finally told them it stood for Rabbit Dog.
