In 1950, Jimmy Rogers recorded this blues classic for Chess Records. It was also his first solo recording for the label.
It was recorded similarly to what Muddy Waters was doing; Ernest "Big" Crawford on bass, Little Walter on harmonica, and Jimmy singing and playing the guitar. Pure simplicity!
Rogers was most well known for being in Muddy Waters band; but he eventually went on his own for a while. He died in 1997 and was inducted into the Blues Hall of Fame in 1995.
Have a listen to this awesome track:
