Here's my version of a great Muddy Waters track - a catchy little number by Willie Dixon. Personally I don't eat grits, but if I did I'd know where to get 'em. Thanks Muddy.

Actually I did get to meet Muddy when our band 'Ramrod' opened for him at The Rainbow in London in 1978. I just remember a big round genial face beaming at me.. he said next time he was over he'd ask for 'my boys'. Actually I don't think he came to the UK again.

My wife Linda also met him the same night, separately, and asked him the immortal question: 'Have you seen Mick Clarke?', to which Muddy no doubt responded with a look of blank incomprehension. Got to laugh!

Mick Clarke - Don't Go No Further! You need meat, go to the market
You need bread, try the bakery
If you need love, baby
Don't go no further
Just come on home to me
I got to love somebody
I got to love somebody
I got to love somebody
somebody got to to love me


You need grits, go to the grocer
You need fish, go to the sea
You need love, baby
Don't look no further
Just come on home to me
… I got to love somebody
I got to love somebody
I got to love somebody
somebody got to to love me


You need money, go to the bank now
You need honey, look for the bees
You need love, baby
Don't go no further
Just come on home to me
I got to love somebody
I got to love somebody
I got to love somebody
somebody got to to love me
