MuleMomma Posted May 19, 2004 Report Share Posted May 19, 2004 Sure am relieved I didn't make the same mistake as I did years ago not seeing Muddy Waters prior to his demise, and was able to catch this master in action at the Toronto Jazzfest in 2000. What a show that was...and now what a huge loss to the music world Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
