Hey, I dig Muddy Waters, but I think this is a really dull track. I could play that riff myself. Boring. Muddy is much better than this. (And who is that shreiking in the background?)
Methinks he misses the point.

Please, please, please DO NOT play this kind of stuff in the middle of a Monday afternoon. Good god, I have enough trouble staying awake at my desk as it is!
Better check your pulse!
