Correction:  I just remembered that the song Muddy and Paul  Butterfield 
played together in its entirety was "Hoochie-Coochie  Man".....because I kept 
thinking of Buzz Krantz during it ;)
 
...Muddy also does "Mannish Boy" in the film.

I'm sure this has been discussed here before my time,  but I saw The  Last 
Waltz for the first time in its entirety a couple  of days ago on  Flix.  The 
1978 
movie featuring the 1976 final  tour of Robbie Robertson's  The Band ....with 
their guests.  So  many fabulous musical moments...some  interesting 
harmonica 
work (yes,  even by Neil Young and Bob Dylan) ...but what  really stood out 
was  
Muddy Waters being backed up by Paul Butterfield.  In  living  colour, 
instead 
of old black/white youtube videos...performing the  entire  song of "Mannish 
Boy".

The video's worth getting for  that performance alone, as well  as Robbie 
Robertson's reminiscence of  their last meeting with Sonny Boy  Williamson 
shortly 
before his  death.  Directed by Martin  Scorsese.  Incredibly  good.
