Description:

The first two works by Nina Simone and Etta James were released in July of this year, and both have been extremely well received. MARIANNE FAITHFULL: THE MONTREUX YEARS" and "MUDDY WATERS: THE MONTREUX YEARS" will be released. Both will be released in 1CD and 2LP formats and feature a wealth of rare live recordings from their performances at the Montreux Jazz Festival. Muddy Waters, Chicago's King of the Blues, attracted a great deal of attention when he performed at the Montreux Jazz Festival in the 1970s.By the time festival founder Claude Nobbs saw him live for the first time in 1965, Muddy Waters had already become a cultural and musical force to be reckoned with, and had ignited a blues revival in the UK, which was well received outside the US. His appearance in Montreux was a major boost to his presence, and the audience went wild for him. MUDDY WATERS: THE MONTREUX YEARS features an impressive track listing of Muddy Waters' greatest hits. From the chugging standard "Mannish Boy" to the genre-defining "I'm Your Hoochie Coochie Man" to the bare-bones greatness of "Rosalie," the performance oozes effortless style and Delta majesty. The work is a work that can be enjoyed in abundance. (2/2)
