I ended up with 2 these boxsets and thankfully never opened this one--this is a great collector's edition and some of the highest quality recordings of Muddy Waters I have ever heard. It's a 6 record box set, featuring 72 songs by the Hootchie-Cootchie Man-over 3 1/2 hours!-including blues classics Baby Please Don't Go; Mannish Boy; Rollin' Stone; Evil; I'm Ready; Just Make Love to You , etc. and a host of rarities. Comes with that killer band and a photo-packed, 32-page booklet.
