King Bee

Limited 180gm gold colored vinyl LP pressing. Muddy Waters will always be known as one of the founding fathers of modern day blues. His legendary style of playing guitar, his unique vocal prowess and of course his stellar list of classic Chicago and Mississippi Delta blues tunes have all gone on to influence generations upon generations of rock and blues performers worldwide. With almost six decades in the music business, the Mississippi native began working in the late-70s with one of his biggest fans Johnny Winter, cutting his final four albums for Blue Sky Records, earning both the artist and producer Grammy Awards for several of them. Muddy's final studio album, 1981's King Bee finds the dynamic duo in fine form form on a consummate set that encompasses revisits of old Chess material, stellar originals like "Champagne & Reefer," and most notably his all-time classic take on Slim Harpo's "King Bee."
