I really like this performance (Willie Dixon on bass! I skipped it so it goes right to the song but the intros might be interesting):

Who needs a guitar face when you've got an eyebrow like that??

I saw Matt Murphy play with James Cotton at Brown University's Meehan Auditorium back in 1970. I was right directly in front of the stage.
It was fantastic! Rest In Peace, Matt...

Yeah.That is very sad news but I didn't realize that he was 88yo.About 15 years ago he hired the band I was playing with to back him up for a show and he was the nicest person.Just a gem of a human being and WOW.What an entertainer/guitarist.Hell of a golfer too. A few years ago he suffered a stroke and I didn't hear a whole lot from him.
R.I.P. Matt "Guitar" Murphy.See ya' on the other side.
