So anyway....thought I'd throw another in there for the blues fans (of which I am one.) Don't know who is aware of this, but here it is: Muddy Waters mentored the Rolling Stones.
On November 22, 1981, The Stones took a night off from the Tattoo You tour to hear Muddy Waters play at Buddy Guy’s Checkerboard Lounge in Chicago. Delighting the lucky audience, Waters called The Stones onstage to jam. Never before released, this DVD/CD combo provides a front row seat to watch Waters (vocals, Fender Telecaster) with a full band, plus Mick Jagger (vocals), Keith Richards (guitar), Ronnie Wood (guitar) and Ian Stewart (the band’s touring pianist) celebrating the joy of being men. Holy Smokes, did someone suddenly grab a camera and preserve all this for us?
Yep. Here it is.
