"As is often the case with later Muddy live recordings there is a fair amount of 'padding' where Muddy isn't actually singing. Also there are a number of staples of his live set here of which there are better versions available. That said, the sound is good, the band are absolutely cookin' (as always) and the take of They Call Me Muddy Waters is worth the price of admission on its own. There's a wonderful laid back version of Kansas City too with Pinetop Perkins sharing the vocals. Recommended."
The best muddy recording i have heard thus far...

"I love it. A contender for the "only 5 cd's on a desert island" list. If you like Muddy Waters Live, don't miss this one. This was recorded in 1979. The entire show just "feels good". From the very start to the encore. I wish I could have been there."
