1973 Original. Record Sounds Amazing. Minor Cover Wear. His Second To Last Record For Chess Muddy Brought Back Pinetop Perkins On Piano And James Cotton On Harp And Peewee Madison, And Sammy Lawhorn Handling The Guitars (Apart From Muddy's Axe, Natch). The Music Is Raw, Hard-edged, And Sharp (The Guitars Slash And Cut), More Like A Successor To Muddy's Classic 1950's Sides (He Rethinks A Bunch '50s Numbers Here) Than To The London Sessions, Super Blues, Brass Blow-outs, And Psychedelic Albums That He'd Been Doing. It's Also Easy To Hear Muddy's Heart In This Release -- He Fairly Oozes Soul Out Of Every Note He Sings. The Title Track, "Sad Letter," And "Mother's Bad Luck Child" Are All Killer Tracks, And Most Of The Rest Isn't Far Behind, Though "Garbage Man" Is The Best Known Of The Newer Tracks, Thanks To Subsequent Covers.
