Great stuff. Thanks, Jack. I saw Muddy in Chicago in 1968, along with B.B. King, Buddy Guy and Lightnin' Hopkins. Stayed at the "Y".
THOSE were the days.

A pleasant surprise to see my late friend Willis Conover do the intro honors, as he did at Newport for many years. Well known overseas for his Voice of America program "Music USA."

Who is in Muddy's band in this clip? I'm embarrassed to say I can't name any of them.

Here they are: Otis Spann (piano, vocals), Pat Hare (guitar), James Cotton (harmonica), Andrew Stevens (bass) and Francis Clay (drums).
