Muddy Waters - Messin' With The Man / Muddy Waters Twist (White Trash Soul R&B Series No.12)

 

This is an imaginary single of mine, similar to the previous Bo Diddley compilation I did. 

I believe it's the same story: Chess tried to modernize Muddy's hard R&B sound by trying to fit it into the trends of Soul and Twist with these floorfillers. I don't know if he liked it at all, probably not, I mean, these guys weren't particularly keen to compromise. Nevertheless, I think both tracks are incredible! One with lots of horns and the other with an organ that colors wonderfully his tough electric Chicago blues and make no mistake both are absolutely danceable monsters!
