Actually, Amazon has the songs available for download:
http://www.amazon.com/Rollin-Stone-A-Golden-Anniversary/dp/B000WS2PVW/ref=dmusic_cd_album/104-4435605-2088722

It appears the album is a bit hard to find.

It is on Rollin' Stone: The Golden Anniversary Collection by Muddy Waters 
(Audio CD - 2000)  for sure (all 3 versions of it), and also on the 9-cd box 
set Complete Muddy Waters (along with some other rare Little Walter gems).

 Greetings ...
 I once had the best double CD set but somehow have lost it. Or perhaps 
some
 blues phantom stole it from me!
 >From memory it was an early collection of blues, doo-wop, and R n B 
songs,
 perhaps all of which were unreleased, not sure.
 I think they may have been from the Chess vaults, but can't be sure of 
that
 either.
 What I can be sure of is that it was a double CD set, with a blue CD 
insert
 cover, and definitely the mention of the word "Vault" on it.

 There were a few classic blues cuts on it and one was by Muddy Waters 
backed
 by Little Walter on harmonica.
 The track was (if I remember rightly) Rock Me Baby. It was an alternate 
take
 and it absolutely rocked.
 The best of Little Walter backing someone. His harp work was absolutely
 brilliant.

 I'm posting this just in case there might be someone who knows of the song
 OR the album / CDs.

 I guess I'm not as good a google searcher as I thought.

 Regards,
 Nate
