Johhny Winter: “Some of the old blues songs that Muddy played didn’t change at the right times,” says Johnny. “‘Rollin’ and Tumblin” and ‘I Can’t Be Satisfied’ are hard songs to follow because they don’t change when you think they’re going to—they change at a different point.”Bob Margolin, who joined Waters’s band in 1973, agreed that his style could be challenging to follow. “Muddy’s blues in general had a behind-the-beat feel called delay time,” “The note would come a little later than you would expect it to. A lot of bluesmen had it. I certainly didn’t have it naturally when I got in the band—I really had to work on playing that way. Johnny was able to get with that too.” Waters used heavy strings with high action on his 1957 or 1958 Telecaster, compared to Johnny’s thin-gauge strings, and his playing style was sparser than Johnny’s, who said it felt natural to play more notes. Rather than using a guitar with open tuning for slide and a second guitar, Waters now used a capo on a single guitar with standard tuning. Waters had set the stage for instrumentation with two guitars, bass, piano, drums, and harp; his sound, which combined blues from the Mississippi Delta and the South Side of Chicago, was like no other. “Muddy’s sound was so distinctive that if he stopped playing, the whole feeling would change,” says Johnny. “His slide was shorter and smaller than most slides. He’d only get two or three strings at a time, where most guys could get six strings. He never told me why he did that.”
