MUDDY WATERS BLUESBAND 1977

Ain't nobody not smilin when Muddy had his Mojo workin. He was part of my life. Thanks Mud.

Nervous? Never. What a guy! 😆 🤣 😂 Wish I had known his music in the 70s. I was young then. Too young to know what a treasure we had. Appreciate the opportunity to see this.

how we miss our blues heroes like Muddy Waters and so many others

He was truly the King Bee with his busy bees working around him in perfect harmony 🐝🐝🐝

You know what even beats this? I saw Muddy in late ‘73 play University of Massachusetts in Amherst. The big difference that night compared to this show was the inclusion of Hollywood Fats on guitar alongside Bob Margolin. I couldn’t believe how well Fats played. From that point on I was a big fan of his. Everyone else also played great that night. Years later I exchanged emails with Margolin. He said to the best of his recollection it was the last gig Fats played with Muddy. I was lucky to have been there. As far as this clip goes, I particularly like Portnoy’s solo on “Blow Wind Blow.” He’s one of the greatest harp players of all time.

I met and hung out with Muddy and wife and the band. Johnny Winter and James Cotton. Hard Again Tour. Great nite ❤ Manish Boy

Remember seeing him live at the Shaboo around 75 so close I could have almost touched him - damn all these ledgends gone ..muddy, cotton, bb king ..so glad I saw all of them .. 😢sad they are gone ❤but they live on in our hearts

I saw this lineup many times. One Easter Sunday in a small club, I was so close bass player Calvin lean over and said "certainly is dismal weather " I was in right place at the right time alot in my life. What a sound, talk about in the pocket!

Love that harmonica

I love these time capsules. The blues is the foundation of all popular music that came after it.

Mud , played what he felt deep down. when you have the blues , you have to play it to make your happy.

Muddy really knew how to put together an incredible blues band.

Pure talent no such thing as this on radio nowadays

Jerry Portnoy at its best. Outstanding

Saw this version of the band in 1976 and 1977 at the Outside Inn, Angola NY Muddy played all night, had all the ladies around him. I am fortunate to have heard such an accomplished and important musician. The bar closed at 4 AM and Muddy played until the lights came on a grateful crowd cheered and cheered the One ,The Only....Muddy Waters ! 🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸😉😉😉

every musician is rockin'! תודה רבה

One the best❤

BEST MUDDY WATERS BAND EVER!!!

Top blues band

I was fortunate to see this band numerous time in the latter part of the 1970s.
