Chess 1579, 1954
This disc obviously had a hard life, but it still delivers the goods.
It's been said that you weren't really a Chess artist in the fifties until Willie Dixon wrote your signature tune. This certainly was Muddy's.
Willie's on here of course (his upright bass really cuts through the decades of wear), along with the usual suspects at the time: Little Walter, Jimmy Rogers, Otis Spann, Fred Below.
