Beginning the study into Muddy - Early Years. If I could only have one blues record, I would probably choose this one, more specifically the second disc.

Layla and Other Assorted Love Songs Layla and Other Assorted Love Songs is the only studio album by blues rock band Derek and the Dominos, released in November 1970, best known for its title track, "Layla". The album is often regarded as Eric Clapton's greatest musical achievement, in ensemble with a talented supporting cast of Bobby Whitlock on keyboards and vocals, Jim Gordon on drums, Carl Radle on bass, and special guest performer Duane Allman on lead and slide guitar on 11 of the 14 songs

Layala - Great and Classic!
I'm going to find John Mayall's "A Hard Road" with Peter Green, John McVie & Mick Fleetwood. Think it is in order on the CD shelf in basement. Haven't heard it in a while. I have the Beano Crusade one there also with Eric and might pull it out as well.

Track Listings 1. All Your Love [Mono Mix] 2. Hideaway [Mono Mix] 3. Little Girl [Mono Mix] 4. Another Man [Mono Mix] 5. Double Crossing Time [Mono Mix] 6. What'd I Say [Mono Mix] 7. Key to Love [Mono Mix] 8. Parchman Farm [Mono Mix] 9. Have You Heard [Mono Mix] 10. Rambling on My Mind [Mono Mix] 11. Steppin' Out [Mono Mix] 12. It Ain't Right [Mono Mix] This 1966 landmark album, along with the debut Butterfield Blues Band record that shipped the previous year, launched the blues-rock revolution of the mid-'60s. Eric Clapton, who'd skipped out on the Yardbirds to explore his deep-blues muse, was given every opportunity to shine on flash-guitar numbers like Otis Rush's "All Your Love" and Freddy King's "Hideaway." And Clapton's easy-rolling cover of Robert Johnson's "Ramblin' on My Mind" marked his debut as a lead vocalist. John Mayall may have been overshadowed by his blazing attaché, but he and the Hughie Flint/John McVie rhythm section hold their own throughout. There are better '60s blues albums, but few had greater impact. --Steve Stolder

From Amazon: When Muddy Waters made the first recordings here, he was 26 or 27 and had not been playing regularly. He didnt own a guitar and had to borrow Alan Lomax's Martin. You see here your basic Delta and Mississippi blues in full blossom, by a man who was a great player if he could sound like this when he wasn't in practice. People look at Mississippi blues with a distorted mind thinking of it only through the stream of Robert Johnson, when the music and the tradition was much broader. In the interviews on this recording you can see how lame and ignorant at times the folklorists were, both white and black, Lomax and Work. But you also see a testament to Son House who taught Robert Johnson, Muddy, and a whole layer of bluesmen and who was such a great artist even in his revival 1960s that Muddy would make his band members keep quiet and play close attention when House performed with them at Newport and elsewhere. However, you also see his roots beyond this. We get to hear a good string band performance with Muddy Playing with fiddler Son Sims and a mandolin player in a blues fiddle band that was typical of what was going on at the time. Muddy explains his decision to start playing music was inspired by Sims and the string band with Sims and the mandolin player was the band he performed with when he got work. Neither Waters nor the liner notes let you know that Waters also played mandolin, and that when Muddy was a teenager in the 1930s, his favorite blues group was the fiddle band The Mississippi Sheiks. Years later, Muddy would explain he walked all day just to hear the Sheiks. Despite all this history, this is some good blues music to listen to,. More relaxed,and less intense, and of course less masterful than the Chess masterpieces Muddy began putting out in Chicago in the 1940s, but this is still a CD I put on my player with it set to keep replaying it because I want to hear it.

This fascinating excavation of the musical foundations of one of the most influential rock bands of all time features Memphis Minnie and Kansas Joe's original version of "When the Levee Breaks," as well as one of the many versions of "Gallows Pole," here done as "Gallis Pole" by Leadbelly. Also included are Bukka White's "Shake 'Em on Down," reputed to be the inspiration for PHYSICAL GRAFFITI'S "Custard Pie," and John Lee Hooker's "Boogie Chillen," the latter a touchstone for the group in both live and studio performances. Excellent collection of the original classic Blues songs that inspired Led Zeppelin. Includes tracks by Sonny Boy Williamson, Robert Johnson, Leadbelly, Memphis Minnie, Josh White, Blind Willie Johnson, Bukka White, Sleepy John Estes, Bllind Boy Fuller, Arthur Crudup, Oscar Woods, Big Bill Broonzy and St. Louis Jimmy Oden. Track Listing 1 When The Levee Breaks 2 Sugar Mama 3 Jesus gonna make up my dying bed 4 Nobody's Fault but Mine 5 Traveling Riverside Blues 6 Girl I Love She Got Long Curly Hair 7 Shake 'Em on Down 8 I Want Some of Your Pie 9 Gallis Pole 10 My Mama Don't Allow Me 11 My Baby I've Been You Slave 12 Fixin' to Die 13 Boogie Chillen 14 Lone Wolf Blues 15 Got The Bottle Up And Gone 16 Truckin' Little Woman 17 Going Down Slow

Producer Mike Vernon tells the story that after having had that photo taken somebody had to airbrush out one of the words, otherwise the message on the wall would have read WILSON IS A NIT. At the time the UK prime minister was Harold Wilson and the term "nit" was a colloquialism for "idiot". I guess Decca didn't fancy having to withdraw the LP to change sleeves, which had happened in the past to other "controversial artwork".
