Cadet Episode 2: Electric Mud

This season of the VMP Anthology Podcast--our 16th!--is devoted to telling the story of the eight album box set devoted to Cadet Records, a short-lived jazz, blues, and soul music imprint underneath the Chess banner that launched artists like Minnie Riperton and Charles Stepney.  In this episode, we talk to Robert Gordon, Muddy Waters' biographer, about Electric Mud, an experimental blues album Muddy Waters made for Cadet that Muddy thought was the worst of his career.  You can buy the box set, The Story of Cadet Records, here now.  Written, hosted and produced by Stephen Anderson Executive Produced by Andrew Winistorfer Produced and edited by Jim Hanke of the Vinyl Emergency Podcast
