"One for the Road:" Kicking Off "Muddy Waters Week"

By Chuck Sudo in Arts & Entertainment on Apr 4, 2011 9:40PM

Today would have been the 98th birthday of McKinley Morganfield, whom we know better as the father of Chicago Blues, Muddy Waters. Not only was Waters the father of the Chicago Blues sound, his music was a major inspiration on the British Invasion of the 1960s (particularly the Rolling Stones). So we're going to do a week's worth of his songs for "One for the Road." Buckle up, because Muddy is a man. Way past 21.
