About Muddy Waters:
McKinley Morganfield is often considered the "father of modern Chicago blues".
Of course that was my idol, Son House. I think he did a lot for the Mississippi slide down there.
Muddy WatersMan, you don't know how I felt that afternoon when I heard that voice and it was my own voice.
Muddy WatersI wanted to get out of Mississippi in the worst way. Go back? What I want to go back for?
Muddy WatersI was so wild and crazy and dumb in my car. It didn't run but 30 miles an hour. You made do.
Muddy WatersI was messing around with the harmonica... but I was 13 before I got a real good note out of it.
