The complete album + 4 bonus tracks pressed on limited edition 180g vinyl. UPC: 8436563186196 Chicago was the centre for electric blues from 1948 when guitarist/singer-songwriter Muddy Waters had his first rhythm & blues chart hits, 'I Can't Be Satisfied' and 'I feel Like Going Home'. Waters, born McKinley Morganfield was more than a pioneer in the Chicago electric blues scene though; he was a great singer of American vernacular music - a vocal artist of astonishing power, range, depth, and subtlety. Presented here is his complete LP The Best of Muddy Waters, a greatest hits compilation released by Chess Records in April 1958. The twelve songs were originally issued as singles between 1948 and 1954, and most appeared within the top ten of Billboard's rhythm & blues chart.
