Johnny Winter - 1977 - Nothing But The Blues [320]

Johnny Winter recorded this during his stint as producer and sideman for Muddy Waters through the four brilliant albums recorded for Blue Sky (late 70's and early 80's). Muddy's terrific band of the time accompanies Johnny throughout. Their influence is profound, keeping Winter grounded and unusually restrained avoiding overplaying entirely. This is his finest blues work. Muddy sings a duet with Johnny in an energetic version of Walkin' Through the Park.
