AWESOME , SIMPLY AWESOME
A truly great selection of songs , great sound and a very nice booklet . If you're a fan of Muddy's muic then this box set is a must . Best of all is the price. Where can you get a packed 4 cd box set for so little ?.


Outstanding (complete) collection, and surprisingly clear.
After losing the Disc 1 of Muddy's early work from the Chess box set, I was pleased to find this to replace it. Couldn't be happier with this 4-disc set. . . and it's just been growing on me since. This is as much an historical record as a musical one, it seems to me I can hear developing style track-by-track.
I'm listening to it now with good headphones, on a baking hot and still day. . . if I shut my eyes I could be in the recording room. .


oh...my...god...this is the good stuff!
just click 'buy it now' you won't be disappointed!!! an afternoons worth of the best blues music money can buy. . quickly rose to the top of my playlist. . . great mastering, selection of material & el cheapo price. . . can't be beat period. (i also bought the new woody guthrie properbox 'some folk' & it's every bit as good) it's stuff like this that simply defines the two great idioms of folk 'n blues music & makes life better!.


As good as it gets
Four disks worth from the 1941 recordings through "Trouble No More" in excellent sound. I loved the "Proper Introduction to Muddy Waters" but this is even better. Best takes, too. It's basically like the Chess anniversary set (1947-52) that came out a few years ago, only now including the great recordings from 1953-55. Discs 3 and 4 are just one masterpiece after the next, right up there with Armstrong or Monroe or name-your-greatest 20th century set. The songs you haven't heard are as good as the more typically anthologized. And it's cheap!.
