Muddy Waters in Chicago - 1963
Loading...
Uploaded by checker764 on Sep 19, 2009
Muddy was featured on a TV program called "International Hour - American Jazz", filmed at the Civic Opera House in Chicago on May 18, 1963. This is a strong performance of his signature song "Got My Mojo Working", marred only by a TERRIBLE edit in the middle, as you will see.

This is a fantastic piece of video. It's only a shame the music is about a half a second out of sync with the vocals on the film.

Muddy almost comes off like he's preachin! i guess he is,he's preachin the blues...playing music is about having fun,and they certianly are,just check out ol Willie!

wonder if they did a part 1 and 2. the speed picks up a lot after the cut in cottons break, and would be strange if that happened. im sure the last part is from the second version of the song.

@stoelefj I'd bet good money that you are right.

Is that Cotton's Fender Bassman between him and Muddy 3:08?

I can't remember the source now - maybe Muddy's long interview in Living Blues, or maybe a Cotton interview - but Muddy apparently kept a complete 'backline' of amps and instruments for his bands to use in case their own stuff ended up in the pawnshop or just wasn't up to snuff. Supposedly the Fender Bassman Cotton was using in the Newport video was Muddy's, and I'd guess this may be the same amp.

How in the world Cotton makes his harp sound like that and thru PA system!!! Willie Smith is a natural on drums even tho he first played harp...Muddy's bands are straight forward in your face, no frills, just blues!!!

I'm amazed that Willie plays with brushes instead of sticks on this song - NOBODY plays "Mojo" with brushes, but he made it sound great!
