This week I have been in a bluesy mood. My go to of the moment is Muddy Waters, I’m guilty of streaming most of his catalog as I only have Folk Singer on vinyl. I talked about my interest in blues in this blog post and while most of my listening is jazz, classic rock, and soul; the blues have had a hold on me since my time at Virginia Tech.
My copy of Muddy Waters – Folk Singer is an Analog Productions reissue and it sounds pretty damn good. It sounds the most holographic of the albums I’ve listened to this week. If you’re feeling blue or don’t have anyone to drink 3 fingers of scotch with. Mr. Waters makes for great company. Inversely, if you have a hankering for a “Big Leg Woman” then he also knows what you’re talking about.
The first of blues reissues that I’ve purchased, but surely not the last.
