Can't Get No Grindin'

Can't Get No Grindin' is an album by blues musician Muddy Waters released by the Chess label in 1973.

No superstars or electronic gimmickry invade the blues club mood that Muddy conjures with ease on Can't Get No Grinding"[6] AllMusic reviewer Bruce Eder stated "Muddy's next-to-last Chess album, Can't Get No Grindin' marked a return to working with a band of his own after several experimental line-ups and recordings ...

The music is raw, hard-edged, and sharp (the guitars slash and cut), more like a successor to Muddy's classic 1950s sides (he rethinks a bunch '50s numbers here) than to the London Sessions, Super Blues, brass blow-outs, and psychedelic albums that he'd been doing.

It's also easy to hear Muddy's heart in this release -- he fairly oozes soul out of every note he sings".

[4] The Blues Foundation's Jim O'Neil noted "Most of Muddy’s working band, joined by alumnus James Cotton on harp, backed him on a quickly recorded session (Bass preferred live spontaneity to perfected multiple takes when producing blues) that found the master and his crew in fine form, delivering the kind of blues that made Muddy famous back in the 1950s.
