Order Pre-cut Mounts 41 x 31 mm - 40 per pack

Raised by his grandmother after his mother died shortly after giving birth, McKinley "Muddy Waters" Morganfield was given his nickname because of his affinity for playing in the muddy Deer Creek near his house. Heading to Chicago hoping to make it as a professional musician, Muddy Waters burst onto the scene by combining traditional blues with the newly developed electric guitar. His music would serve as inspiration for other legends such as B.B. King, The Rolling Stones, and Jimi Hendrix. Scott 2855 Muddy Waters
