Copenhagen, 1968

Otis Spann (piano and vocals) is back by Muddy Waters’ Band live at the Copenhagen Jazz Festival in 1968.

Otis Spann replaced Maceo Merriweather as Muddy Waters’ piano player in late 1952, and participated in his first recording session with the band on September 24, 1953. From 1952 to 1968 Spann was a full-time member of the Muddy Waters Band, while periodically recording as a solo artist. At the time he also did session work with other Chess artists including Howlin’ Wolf and Bo Diddley.
