FINALLY!
I still have my vinyl copy of that one from when it first came out (great
close up of Muddy on the cover!). I was just about to buy it on CD and
picked up the WXRT 1980 Blues Deluxe bargain from Alligator for about $10.00
instead (great harp on Willie Dixon's "Wang Dang Doodle").  I will hold-off
until the reissue. Thanks for the news.

the late 70s album muddy "mississippi" waters live has been (or is about) to
be re-issued.  this was recorded during his time with the blue sky label,
where he was produced with tlc by johnny winter.  these were my first
introduction 
the muddy's recording...for the young'uns out there, there was a time when
you could walk into a decent record store and ~not~ find a decent muddy
sampler 
of his chess work (for a variety of reasons).
anyway, the album has been expanded from one lp length album to a two disc
set.
harp content...there's some on there, and i'm pretty sure it was jerry
portnoy, but it's been a long time since i've had this, so i could be wrong
about 
who.

That was the first real blues recording I woned. I picked it up on tape for
like $3 and I loved it. That's a great version of Mannish Boy on that one
too. 19 Years old is pretty serious too. Great CD, worth the cash. The harp
players are Jerry Portnoy and James Cotton
