Just watched Cadillac Records movie, and although I didn't like it that much, it had some nice moments here and there. I watched documentaries about chess records before, and they are awesome (better then the movie). Well, Muddy Waters came out again, haven't listened to Muddy for some time, so check out this great song, back in the days when electric guitars were still "new thing".

yoknow, I never thought about electric guitars being a new thing

That must've been so weird to see an instrument like that for the first time

Dunno if you guys had the chance, but if you like movies, might be good to watch something connected to Chess Records. It's really how history was made. It kinda puts things into perspective. But, Cadillac Records movie kinda failed that, having only couple of interesting moments.

Keith Richards said the first time he met Muddy he was painting the ceiling at the record company. If its true its a shame they treated him like that.

there is a part in the movie when the Rolling Stones appear and Muddy wasn't selling albums anymore... so it could be possible. They say in the movie... "Hi Mr. Waters, we are from England and we have a band that has the name of one of your songs", then Muddy asks "What's the name of your band", and the young guys says... "The Rolling Stones".

Yeah I think Keith said that after they broke in the states, Muddy's sales went back up too.
