Muddy Waters

Muddy Waters turned Delta blues into the electric language of Chicago. The musician from the USA shaped modern blues with slide guitar, commanding vocals, amplified band sound, and songs that later fed directly into rock. Rollin' Stone, Hoochie Coochie Man, Mannish Boy, and Got My Mojo Working made him one of the central figures of 20th-century music.
