"Mannish Boy" (or "Manish Boy" as it was first labeled) is a #bluesStandard written by #MuddyWaters, #MelLondon, and #BoDiddley (with Waters and Diddley being credited under their birth names). First recorded in 1955 by Waters, it serves as an "#answerSong" to Bo Diddley's "#ImAMan", which was in turn inspired by Waters' and #WillieDixon's "#HoochieCoochieMan". "Mannish Boy" features a repeating #stoptime figure on one chord throughout the song.

`Dixon's progress on the upright bass came to an abrupt halt with the advent of World War II, when he refused induction into military service as a conscientious objector and was imprisoned for ten months. He refused to go to war because he would not fight for a nation in which institutionalized racism and racist laws were prevalent`

Tinsley Ellis, Naked Truth, 2024 on Alligator Records
Tinsley Ellis has put out over 20 albums between 1982 and 2024, including more than a dozen on Chicago’s Alligator Records, one of my favorite blues labels (founded in 1971).
This, his latest, Includes “Grown Ass Man” (which I think should probably be “grown-ass man” since it’s really a compound adjective, isn’t it?) as well as covers of Son House, Willie Dixon, and Leo Kottke. Great contemporary takes on traditional blues.
Picked up this signed copy on gold vinyl directly from the artist at a show at the Shalin LIu in Rockport MA.
