Eric Bibb has shared the second single from his forthcoming album, One Mississippi, and it is a track named after, and written and recorded in tribute to, blues guitar pioneer Muddy Waters.
Muddy Waters, the song, is Bibb paying his dues to one of the most influential players of all time, a man whose licks inspired not just the up-and-coming blues cats like Bibb back in the day, but the rock players of the ‘60s and ‘70s. Just ask Keith Richards; he has described Waters as the rosetta stone for his musical education. And Bibb might be of the same opinion.
