Getting tired of Muddy Waters. There's a lot of great Chicago Blues musicians who deserve more airplay.

Isn't this one of those albums he did late in his career, with Johnny Winter producing/performing?

Why is it that people get bent out of shape when rappers have misogynist and homophobic lyrics, but not when blues singers do?

"Come over here and I'll prove I ain't no queer"?

(I see some claim it's "square", not "queer". Try listening to the song instead of reading the lyrics. It's clearly "queer".)


Even if he was saying 'queer' (which he isn't), the word had a completely different meaning when this was recorded.
