Muddy Waters - Fox Squirrel

Just posting this song for no better reason than that I like it. It's from The Muddy Waters Woodstock Album of 1975, produced by Henry Glover but something of a labor of love for Levon Helm, who had loved Muddy since his own childhood in the Delta, when Muddy's early records were popular locally. This track for some reason didn't make the final cut and was finally released as a bonus track on the CD release. Can't see why--it's another in Mr. Waters's series of slow-burning paeans to sexuality. Enjoy.
