With the title of his new album, Mud Morganfield couldn't be more right. Because he's the eldest son of McKinley 'Muddy Waters' Morganfield. The live record recorded on Jersey in 2008 naturally features flawless Chicago blues ("What Is That You Got?") as well as classics in outstanding and very authentic versions ("Hoochie Coochie Man", "I'm Ready", "Mannish Boy"), in which Morganfield's soulful singing contributes to their high quality. In addition to the seven tracks, four bonus tracks come from different sources, of which a very quiet version of "Good Morning Little Schoolgirl" stands out.
