rec. August 12, 1952 in Chicago, IL; Jimmy Rogers, voc, g; Henry Gray, p; Bob Woodfork, g; Willie Dixon, b; A.J. Gladney, dr

Muddy Waters has claimed to be the '2nd vocal' on 'The Last Time', if this is so then he may also be the second guitarist and not Bob Woodfork. Fancourt & McGrath (2006) therefore list Muddy Waters (and not Bob Woodfork) as 2nd guitarist. White, Campbell and Kelly contradict as follows: "Fancourt and McGrath claim that Muddy provided backing vocals on 'The Last Time,' but the company was merely experimenting with vocal overdubs."
