May Twilight Blues
Muddy Waters has got to get his due! A force in blues music, he made his way from the Mississippi Delta to Chicago and went from playing the acoustic Delta sound to amplifying his guitar because the Chicago clubs were so noisy and raucous that no one could hear him play. He’s called the father of Chicago blues - which took the Delta blues sound and added electrification.
