More Real Folk Blues is an album compiling singles recorded by blues musician Muddy Waters between 1948 and 1953 that was released by the Chess label in 1967.




Reception



AllMusic reviewer Cub Koda stated "The companion volume to the first Waters entry in the Real Folk Blues series is even more down-home than the first. Featuring another brace of early Chess sides from 1948-1952, this release features some essential tracks ... this is a fine budget package that Muddy (and lovers of early Chicago blues) fans certainly shouldn't overlook". PopMatters Marshall Bowden noted "More Real Folk Blues contains music from a much more compact period of Waters' career, 1948-1952 ... with most of the tracks featuring Waters and the bassist Ernest "Big" Crawford, sometimes with the addition of harmonica. Also interesting is the fact that despite the "folk blues" sound of these recordings, all of the tracks were actually written by Waters himself ... There is no question that one is in the presence of a blues master when listening to these recordings".
