GEFFEN/UMe will celebrate the upcoming 60th anniversary of Blues legend MUDDY WATERS’s first album on NOVEMBER 10th, by reissuing ‘The Best of MUDDY WATERS’ on vinyl in original mono for the first time in 30 years; also available for download and streaming for the first time ever. The album was first released in 1958 on CHESS RECORDS.
ROLLING STONE originally gave the greatest hits collection a five-star review, “One masterpiece after another. Throughout, WATERS, embodies a persona that simmers with lust, loss and menace. His voice intimates threat, never more so than when he unleashes his gripping repertoire of moans, howls, hollers, hums, groans and growls. The tension-wire whine of his slide guitar and the hypnotic drone of LITTLE WALTER's harmonica often mimic the cadences of WATERS' voice, creating the claustrophobic impression that the singer's pain, desperation and explosive urges are the only emotions that exist. Charms, spells and erotic magic suffuse these songs.”
