To celebrate Muddy Waters’ birth centenary, his son Mud has decided to pay homage to his memory by recording this album entitled For Pops: A Tribute To Muddy Waters Mud has not included his fathers’ most popular songs in the recording, but the ones that used to sound at home The true thing is Mud had never been interested by the music his father played and it was not until he passed away, that Mud realized who was his father and then he decided to follow his footsteps The album is a true example of the real Chicago style and fifties south-side sound Fourteen wonderful songs, probably like Muddy Waters will sound today if he still was with us To listen to Muddy’s repertoire in his son’s voice is as you were listening to his father, because both the pitch and the vocal tone are like the ones the great bluesman had And to round it up, he is backed by a versatile Kim Wilson on harmonica, Billy Flynn and Rusty Zynn on guitars, Steve Gomes on bass, Robb Stupka on drums and Barrelhouse Chuck on piano Pure and exceptional Chicago blues by the most popular Muddy Waters’ sons together with a first class bunch of magnificent blues artisans This is an album that does not have a single bad note on it
