Muddy Waters at Newport 1960

Makes you really appreciate why so many loved (and cribbed) from him

kinda boring

Ну, тут важко щось сказати якось. Але якщо і слухати таку блюзову класику, то у форматі живого концерту мабуть найліпше. 3.5

It's alright. I see why it was inspiration for a lot of later guitarists.

I can understand why a load of white British blokes heard this and decided they wanted to sound like Muddy Waters. I mean, none of them could, but at least some of them found their own sound in the process.

A flawless collection of solid live blues tunes with a great band. There’s a spareness to it that I appreciate - while I like fancy guitar solos and strings and all that on other records, that is not required or even appreciated here. It’s just perfect as it is.

This is what good music sounds like. I’ve never listened to it until today, but I’m glad that I listened to this before getting eaten by a shark.

It was alright. It is just not the kind of music that get me going. Not something I would want to actively listen to on a regular basis.

Highly influential for sure, but the blues has always been too repetitive for my taste.

It's good. I like that somebody wrote a fuck song called "Tiger in Your Tank" within a year of the ad slogan becoming popular.

Nice :-)

The band is tight, the performances are full of swagger, and Muddy Waters sounds completely in command from the first song onward. Nothing here feels polished for the sake of it; the energy of the performance does most of the work.

What makes the album stand out is how immediate it still sounds. You can hear the band pushing each other, the audience reacting, and the songs opening up in ways that a studio recording rarely allows. It captures the blues as something physical and communal rather than merely historical.

For an early live album, it holds up remarkably well. If I had to point to one recording as a reference for how electric blues should work on stage, this would be high on the list.

Sure

that was kinda cool. relaxing blues music to work to

Clearly this is an influential and important recording, but listening with 21st century ears its power has been diminished/diluted by a cornucopia of copiests.

I’d put this on as background noise but it’s not something I will play and really listen to. 5/10

Like Clapton’s MTV Unplugged 30 years before it happened!!

Can see how it influenced what was to come. Enjoyed it more than I expected tbh.

I'm sure this is classic, it's just not for me.

this was fine but did nothing for me

Somewhat entertaining, probably won’t be back to it

Did enjoy got my mojo back
