Waters's tribute album to the man who gave him his start on the Chicago circuit, this stuff doesn't sound much like Broonzy so much as a virtual recasting of his songs into Muddy's electric Chicago style. Evidently the first time Waters and his band were recorded in stereo, the highlights include high voltage takes on "When I Get to Drinkin'" and "The Mopper's Blues," with some really great harp from James Cotton as an added bonus.

I WILL GLADLY COMBINE POSTAGE FOR MULTIPLE WINS AND GUARANTEE SATISFACTION FOR EVERYTHING I SELL. I WANT HAPPY COLLECTORS.
