Apr 4, 2008 · just watched the Newport 1960 Muddy footage, now available on DVD along with a couple of other concerts from later eras. Great footage.

Why did Muddy's band leave him? - Telecaster Guitar Forum
Jan 2, 2011 · The only other Guitarists IMHO who take a solo as sweetly are Charlie Christian and Magic Sam.

It was Luther.

Allen Hot Fudge w/ Nuts - Telecaster Guitar Forum
Aug 28, 2008 · I'm a happy HF/w Ns owner. I built my Fudge two years ago from a kit. (My third Allen.) I've always been a lover of the blues.

I play mostly Rolling Stones, Bruce Springsteen etc. but also alot of blues like Howlin' Wolf, Muddy waters and the like.
