Muddy - The 'benchmark' vocal and instrumental bluesman - By: , 24 Jan 2002
'The Anthology' truly captures the essence & amplifies the breadth of Muddy Waters' blues legacy. The excellent - but sensitive -reworking of what would now be viewed as primitive recordings makes this artist come alive again! It is hugely pleasing to identify phrasing & 'licks' that have appearedin the guitar works of his latterday devoteesin the R&B genre. Sadly, few examples of his work are available widely & 'The Anthology' is the 'must have' record of Muddy's influential benchmark styles of vocal & instrumental virtuosity.
