Live at Mister Kelly's, often stylized as "Live" (At Mr. Kelly's), is a live album by blues musician Muddy Waters released by the Chess label in 1971.[1] [2] [3]
Rolling Stone said "All in all, it’s a rainy night sounding, laid-back album with the emphasis on good solid blues"[4] AllMusic reviewer Bruce Eder stated "Muddy Waters Live (At Mr. Kelly's) shows precisely how fortuitous Muddy Waters' history with Chess Records was. ... This album, recorded during two June 1971 gigs at one of Chicago's top clubs, was the third full-length concert release of his career ... The core of the band that would work with him for the rest of the '70s was already with him, and the man himself was in excellent form -- in voice and on slide guitar ... the effect of hearing a master of the blues virtuoso band in action is overpowering".
