McKinley Morganfield (April 4, 1913 – April 30, 1983), known by his stage name "Muddy Waters", was an American blues musician. He is often considered the "father of modern Chicago blues". In 1981, Muddy Waters was invited to perform at "Chicago Fest", the city's top outdoor music festival. He was joined onstage by Johnny Winter—who had successfully produced his most recent albums—and played classics like "Mannish Boy," "Trouble No More" and "Mojo Working" to a new generation of fans. This historic performance was made available on DVD in 2009 by Shout! Factory. Later that year, Waters performed live with the Rolling Stones at the Checkerboard Lounge, with a DVD version of the concert released in 2012.
