On this day in 1955, one of Muddy’s most recognizable tunes, “Mannish Boy,” was recorded! ⚡✊
Intended to be both a sequel to “Hoochie Coochie Man” AND in response to Bo Diddley’s “I’m a Man,” the single left an incredible legacy, earning Muddy his electric blues stripes in The Blues Hall Of Fame, and was included in The Rock N’ Roll Hall Of Fame’s ‘500 Songs That Shaped Rock N Roll.’
We don’t need to spell it out for you—hit the bio link & stream “Mannish Boy” off of THE ANTHOLOGY now.

Buddy Guy explains how he was recruited by Muddy Waters to play on “Folk Singer” in 1963.
.
.
“Who?” I asked. “You,” he said.
Sure, I was pleased, but wondered how Leonard [Chess] would take it. “Haven’t told him yet. He’ll know when you show up tomorrow.” .
.
When I showed up the next day, Leonard came out of the control booth and asked, “What are you doing here? I got a Muddy session.” “I’m here for that session.” I explained. “No one sent for you.” “Muddy did.” “I told Muddy I wanted one of those Delta guitarists. Some guy with white hair and broken-down guitar. What do you know about country blues, Buddy?” .
.
“That’s all I do know,” I said. “Was raised up on ‘em.” When Muddy showed up, Leonard gave him hell for choosing me. .
.
They went back and forth, but Muddy stayed stubborn as a mule. “You want the old music,” Muddy told Chess. “Well, this young man can play that old music in his sleep. Pull him off this session and I’m going home to sleep!” .
.
Leonard let me stay.
