Muddy Waters - Mannish Boy

[smokiebird06]

Will you look at those dead motherfuckers in the audience? Their listening to a classic being recorded and they all have popsicles up their asses!

[squidmotion]

i'm just waiting on someone to talk about that barker guy being a much better drummer... lol.

[6louiscyphre6]

15 people have to pick cotton in Mississipi delta!

[GuitarMirth]

This is beautiful. Justin Bieber & "Lady" Gaga thrown into a volcano.

[jpace1976]

this is blues



[gschmal25]

He and BB are the greatest!

[UKnoWhoItIs80]

I love this Shit!

[jkirk1626]

Something about playing soul in front of a soulless audience makes it stale and flat. No diss on Muddy Waters. It's kind of like San Francisco hipsters who jump on the bandwagon of cool and pretend to have been die-hards since the days before whatever it was was cool. It never really works though. Switzerland's great but blues doesn't really feel the same there as in real blues havens from Chicago to New Orleans.

[peterpterodactyl]

@jkirk1626 yea, you right! they ain't feelin' it. They are playing tighter that Einstein's hat band, but there's nothing coming back from the audience. there is not call and response. the signal gets lost.

[peaceloveandsf]

Muddy is, was, and will always be the man!!

[BLUESMANRONCHICAGO]

@peaceloveandsf yes he was, and i pay tribute to him every time i perform, this song perhaps is one of the all time classic blues tunes, many artists covered it, including the Yardbirds, but Muddy's version still the best

[DieBobable]

Jamming on this is likeuuhhhh............. fill in yourself, because I can't

[heinzpo]

the definition of manish in this song is related to what?

[RakatsukiTV]

damn...... this song is older than me and i still like :D

[pinktacoetr]

@RakatsukiTV explains your ignorant comment.

[STP43FAN1]

You can hear the influence he had on the Stones from the opening harmonica riff onward.

[Ermin0s]

IM A MAYN!!!!

[KhaosSoulFury]

14 people are mannish boys. i.e. Not Men.

[KhaosSoulFury]

[metallicaownsme]

[mceka]

@metallicaownsme . The Rolling Stones named themselves after his 1950 song Rollin' Stone

[metallicaownsme]

@mceka Ok. That's good to know. :)

[jariley1000]

@alejorichards Yes: Muddy Waters Live in Montreux 1974, Switzerland, on bass Bill Wyman

[bibinnne]

Just can say that : “MUDDY WATERS IS A GENIUS !”

[bibinnne]

Hey guys ! Stop say "X people missed the like button" because they've their choice, and they chose. People is free.

[1995tlee]

@bibinnne People "is" free to use incorrect grammar as well, lucky for you.

[bibinnne]

@1995tlee It's not incorrect grammar, it's an incorrect morality.

[adders42]

Not just any man but THE man! Legendary

[SoyAndJake]

Once you learn to apreciate this man, all his fellow Blues musitions, and their messages'... Then you can call Your self a man. And to all those people you think that Mr. Lady Gaga and Lil' Miss Justin Bieber are the Musical talent of the world, just know Those artists (If you can call them that) have no passion in their words and all they talk about is stupid Little drama pop-ups. Not What it means to be original or passionate for the art of music. Thank you.

-SoyAndJake

[patrickgduggan]

@SoyAndJake indeed you are correct sir. teehee. you spelled musicians wrong.

[Bendorizor]

@SoyAndJake I agree with most of your points, but you really underestimate Lady Gaga and her 'talent'. Check out her acoustic/unplugged stuff :)

[Liesbeth328]

14 thumbs down are still a boy. Grow up kids.

[mysteryskater48]

@JamesTKirkCobain Judging by your name, you clearly have no taste in music.

[jukeking1]

13 benighted people didn't like this! WTF? How could ANYBODY with an ear for music NOT LOVE MUDDY WATErS

[WeirFaithful]

@jukeking1 excellent question!

[FalloutJoni]

[redface626]

[wootoodoo]

[shaggymattrocks]

[Bram25]

[FraAlbi]

watch?v=P9K-EokujcU

They are pretty the same song... XD

[strat63]

All you little girls straighten up that line, I can make love to you honey in five minutes time, ain't that a man

[laban099]

Tenk at denne låta ble laget i 1955 og den spilles fremdeles på utesteder over alt i verden.

[Mastabooma]

I THINK IM PASSING A KINDNEY STONE AAAHHHH! lol family guy.

[HakanEhn]

Watch my harmonica version of this great song. It´s on my youtube site, just click the blue link HakanEhn. Enjoy!

[AK1292]

AHH. This riff is so familiar! I've heard it in a classic rock (bands like Led Zeppelin) song. BUT WHICH ONE?? This is killing me.

[ukulazy]

@AK1292 The chord progression E- A- G you're talking about is probably the most popular and 'reused' riff in the world =) It's in hundreds if not thousands of songs... and probably in more than one Led Zep song. But specifically...'whole Lotta Love' sounds like a sped up version. If not, it could be Rolling Stones as they use the same riff in lots of songs (especially earlier music which was mainly straight blues covers of artists like Muddy Waters).

[FraAlbi]

@AK1292 * Bad To The Bone - George Thorogood

* I'm a man - Bo Diddley

* No Money Down - Chuck Berry

and I think many others :P

[measomo]

@FraAlbi and from Argentina, we've got Pappo's "Siempre Es Lo Mismo Nena" (It's Always The Same, Girl).

Listen that song and you'll notice it's the same riff..

cheers!

[measomo]

@measomo here! /watch?v=qiZDUK8HIVc

[dalrekantarah]

@measomo I NEED A TRANSLATION

[measomo]

@dalrekantarah dije que en Argentina, está el tema de Pappo, "Siempre es lo mismo nena", tiene un riff parecido.

This song has a similar riff: /watch?v=4YFk0u8tdFE

[CodedLockFilms]

Now that's some real music right there.

[Deader87]

I like this, but man I love his 1977 version of this on Hard Again, Man he rocked sooooooooooo hard on that

[Deader87]

I've noticed that a lot of blues-players have a history of going to the Montreux Jazz-Festival

[Circumpunk]

Slow punk.

[ramosforest]

A mannish song indeed.

[Jumija29]

La chair de poule, juste çà ! ...

[eplaksin]

..it just can not get any better than this...peace in the streets...

[jerichomyles]

Just have to say this one thing.....Music wouldn't be the way it was today....rock wouldnt be the way it was or is....without guys like Muddy, B.B , Howling Wolf...Robert Johnson. So just stuff the stealing crap....sure we all did....the music influenced us all....we copied, we stole, but we made it our own thru how we played it and how it felt. If it wasn't for these guys... would we have rock and roll?

[ericjlove]

lol is that lil walter next to him

[william1theguitarwah]

what amp is muddy using

[gbryananderson]

He puts Howlin Wolf to shame

[tommag82]

great song

[Krinisty]

Man I love this song! Muddy rocks this tune big time! <3

[ShukriKorkis]

music for those who can't count past 4

[jakerandall123]

Gotts have my Muddy waters flowing in my veins. Love this man.

[jordanmcneil01]

just dig folks... just dig

[siloksiy]

СУПЕР! У меня нет слов что бы выразить всю гамму чувств - просто невъебенно!

[november191968]

White rockers have certainly "borrowed","stolen" or whatever the sound and the feeling that only the bluesmen had.And how couldn't they?The bluesmen were all children of slaves.Slavery had given them sorrow that no other race had ever lived before.Sorrow is lots of times a creative force.Rarely isart born on the sunny side of the street.

[tommag82]

@november191968 Not just white rockers stole licks and lyrics. Good arists no matter what color generally gave credit to the artists they were copying. SRV and Clapton were two. No doubt there is still a lot of thieving going on.

[november191968]

@tommag82 Rory Gallagher was the third.He always mentioned the name of the artist she was covering.Always!

[jason1309]

I am MAN!!!!!!!!!!!

[BLUESMANRONCHICAGO]

yardbirds took mannish boy and made version simply called i'm a man, great guitar work by jeff beck on that version, but muddy's original is still the best, i do this song with my band

[LonesomePaleRider]

Nah this is Mannish Boy. Hoochie Coochie Man does sound similar though.

[Krinisty]

I LOVE this!

[CaptDouglasJayFalcon]

Now this is music! Without guys like Muddy Waters, B.B. King, and Howlin' Wolf today's rock artists would be nowhere. Just listen to this song, you can FEEL the pain!

[saron380]

@CaptDouglasJayFalcon what pain? He's singin' bout bein' a grown man

the blues isn't ALL about sorrow, it's a bout life too......

[vegitoxtreme]

@CaptDouglasJayFalcon

Yeah :D George Thoroughgood (or whatever it's spelled) was inspired by this song to create "Bad to the bone" :P

[thailow117]

@CaptDouglasJayFalcon sorry man, no pain in this tune. just plain braggadocio, which is a good thing though :-)

[echtonbewolkt]

God damn....that was good...

[gonadthegoatslayer]

Blues is just a good man feelin bad, if that's feelin bad then sighn me up!!

[Radugog]

Awesome song!!!Respect Muddy!!!Ms ca ai postat clipu!!!

[poppafalcon]

Exactly! Mannish Boy came out in 60's. A lot of these early blues cats were robbed BLIND by lazy ass rockers. These early blues paved the way for EVERY ROCK band in existance today. U can FEEL the pain in this song. 90% of Led Zepplin's music was STOLEN from cats like these.

[HowAboutSomeTruth1]

You can't 'steal' music idiot.

[bfodge]

Yeah you can idiot. The beach boys stole Chuck berrys songs and got sued for it...

[HowAboutSomeTruth1]

Major difference between being influenced by a style of music and directly copying a sample of someones music dumbfuck.

[bfodge]

Yeah dumbfuck Beach boys stole his exact samples, and its not the first time its happened so go fuck yourself idiot

[HowAboutSomeTruth1]

That's what I said retard. What else you wanna repeat?

[TwilightsLastGleam]

@poppafalcon Only so much you can do on guitar.

[cmpody]

"90% of Led Zepplin's music was STOLEN from cats like these. " This is bs. There is a huge difference between influence and stealing. Plant may have left some lyrics the same out of flattery and respect, but that is a far far cry from 90% stealing. Besides Zep considered themselves a blues artists and blues artists have been "stealing" from each other for ever.

[notsoprettynow84]

@cmpody Thank you. I'm glad someone else gets it. Spread the word.

[mslaerik]

the MAN the King the Godfather !

[loyaldude10]

Muddy was truly one of kind. Imitated by many, but copied by no one. RIP, Muddy.

[jacojack]

[granthemenway]

No "B."------------

[stillthechampionnn]

wow what year was this cuz he put this song out in 1955 lol looks like the 60's or 70's this is SO FUGGIN COOL!

[opoof]

i think its late 60's early 70's just from the quality of the film and their clothes. just a guess though.

[vinegaroon1]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but it looks like Dallas Taylor and his brother on rhythm guitar and drums, Bill Wyman on bass, Buddy Guy on lead ( Muddy doesn't seem to be hitting all that many licks) and Junior Wells on harp, with Pinetop Perkins on keys.

[cassiopol]

CLÁSSICO TOTAL !!!

[Not2Be0utDone]

this song can go on forever with that beat...and i would never get tired of hearing it

[KennyPalmer3]

awesome music

[willwelsh816]

Is that a chick on the drums?

serious Question.

[razbizzle]

would it not be kick ass?

haha

[drivervw]

Not with those chops for side burns!

[TheNeptuneGood]

3:14 every MAN understands that part, you've realized that you are a grown a%$ man with real things going on, and you are handling it. Uhhhhhhahhhh!

[tvtommyivo]

[drivervw]

And Patrick Ewing on guitar!! :)

[christosganidis]

i prefer the one from black strobe. this is more blues and slow

[daveontehmoon]

who is the harp player in the video?

[murcos]

James Cotton

[joequinn64]

The harp player is Junior Wells. He and Bubby Guy played together in the 60's & early 70's.

[arrynz]

"No B!! O-Chile... Y.. That leaves mannish boy! I'm a MAN!" Amazing song by one of the greatest bluesmen ever.

[semasiology]

tele :)

[wolfman4u2nv]

God, I love this song. Muddy and Howlin Wolf are like gods to me.

[sonny45badman]

best blues song ever!!!!!!!!!!!

[BigDaddy1968]

I'll tell you how good this song is.

You could build the ENTIRE Rock n Roll Catalogue on just this one song.

No Willie Dixon. No Howlin' Wolf. No BB King. No other songs by Muddy Water.

Just.This.Song.

And all of Rock n Roll would have sprung from it.

It is that seminal.

And I should know.

After all, I'm...

Big Daddy
