Amazon.com This is a treasure trove--for the Muddy Waters fan, for the blues historian, for the country-blues enthusiast. , searching for (recently deceased), came through and recorded a young McKinley Morganfield. The rest is history. Early versions of future classics can be found on these field recordings from 1941-42, and the guitar and voice that would have unimaginable influence on blues and rock & roll. There's no Chicago yet in these often-scratchy recordings, but if you listen, you can hear where it came from. -- Genevieve Williams
