"This cd contains superb hard core blues from the Hoochi Coochi man himself. The Blues don't get any better than this. through the late 70's and early 80's, Muddy Waters recorded three of his best albums. this being the second in the series of new versions to his old 50's recordings from 1978, featurs as the preaviuos album "Hard Again" some of the best musicians in the buisness. Johnny Winter as producer and lead guitarist, gives the album his unique sound and slide lick's to backup Muddy.in adition there is the outstanding Jimmy Rodgers who playd with Muddy's original Band and the growning sound of jerryy portnoy's Harp blows, (the same guy blows the harp on Eric Claptons most acclaimd blues album "from the Cradle" in 1994). the best tracks on this cd are the title track i'm ready, good morning little school girl and of cource the hoochi coochi man including a great guitar solo that dosn't apear on the original version. all the others are each pure gold as well. "i'm ready" to hear this again. get this album now, your never going to get tierd of it. Blues all day long..."
