RIP to one of the last true Chicago blues giants. 

Muddy

[Soulstation1]

Lucky Joe should be in a QT Film 

[Big Beat Steve]

Another of those cases where as a casual observer you had no idea he was still around.

RIP.

I had been aware of him since the days of the "Leading Brand" LP on Red Lighting where he was co-billed with Earl Hooker (but not that much more than that, I must admit).

Jody played with Wolf, Bo Diddley, and plenty  of other Chicagoans worth hearing.  He said he invented the "Bo Diddley" guitar line, also the guitar line that Mickey Baker played in "Love Is Strange."
