Muddy Waters - Muddy Waters the Essential Collection - 2000

Review: The British Spectrum label has issued a number of compilations featuring the big blues stars of the 50s and 60s, including Buddy Guy, Howlin' Wolf, and Muddy Waters, and while they completely lacks the excellent liner notes of the various MCA/Chess compilations, the quality is otherwise quite high.
But the lack of decent liner notes and recording information is a shame…there is nothing here but a short (and faulty) essay, which, combined with a not-quite-perfect track selection costs "The Essential Collection" one star. One and a half, actually.
The sound is superb, however. The latest and best quality mastering has been utilized, and most of Muddy Waters' best songs are indeed here, as well as a few odd but (sometimes) quite interesting choices.
Unfortunately the compilers have also chosen the hideous, midguided version of "(I'm Your) Hoochie Coochie Man" recorded for the equally hideous, psychedelic "Electric Mud" album, and the "Mud" version of "Mannish Boy" is here as well. Fortunately almost all the rest of Muddy Waters' classic singles are present in their original versions: "I'm Ready", "Got My Mojo Working", the swinging "Baby Please Don't Go", the wonderful harp-driven "Forty Days And Forty Nights", the tough swagger of "I Want To Be Loved" and "I Just Wanna Make Love To You", and the superbly melodic "I Love The Life I Live, I Live The Life I Love".
