Notes
The title is a bit of a ringer, since this isn’t a collaborative effort in any way, shape, or form. Muddy & the Wolf contains a half-dozen live Muddy Waters tracks with backing from Mike Bloomfield, Paul Butterfield, and Otis Spann, the material culled from the Fathers & Sons sessions. The set also features tracks by Howlin’ Wolf from his London sessions with Eric Clapton and Ringo Starr.
