I sing this with mannish gusto while cruising down the Merritt Parkway, you bet, and as questionable as this may sound, I can sing it as well as Muddy Waters. Really. I also do the “owwoo-yeah!” stuff. Five minutes and 29 seconds of absolute joy. Always leaves me in a great mood. Unlike what you get from Sinners, songs like this are the real thing.
“Waters recorded ‘Mannish Boy’ in Chicago on May 24, 1955. Featuring Jimmy Rogers on guitar and Fred Below on drums.
