Info:
If you don’t recognized the name McKinley Morganfield, don’t feel bad, most people don’t. Better known as Muddy Waters not only does this guy have a cool name, hes put out some of the best blues tunes ever made. He put out his first single in 1941 and his last in 1981 the only thing that could stop him from making music was his death in 1983. Over the years he racked up six Grammy Awards, five Blues Foundation Awards, has four songs in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award. He’s also been inducted into the Blues Foundation Hall of Fame and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and even had his own Postage Stamp. One of the greatest to ever sing the blues in 1941 and that stands true in 2009.
