Muddy Waters was brought to England on tour by the Chris Barber band, who are heard at the end of the album. Chris Barber was responsible for first bringing many bluesmen to England and generally found that they preferred to have the band backing them. This concert was one of the few occasions when the Barber band was able to persuade the bluesmen to play on their own some of the time.
