Muddy Waters

Got My Mojo Working Muddy Waters

Muddy Waters was born in Mississippi, where he grew up singing. Upon his move to Chicago in his mid-30s, Waters picked up his first electric guitar and began to un-self-consciously revolutioniSe popular music of the twentieth century. Combining his unmistakeable Delta roots with the gritty urbanity of Chicago, Waters pioneered a new form of the Blues. This video captures him in all-electric settings from Musikladen, History of Soul, and Rockpalast.
