Mud Morganfield Makes a “House” Call on Hugh Laurie in Chicago
CHICAGO, IL – Last Tuesday, August 21, Severn Records artist Mud Morganfield met up with actor-turned-bluesman Hugh Laurie at the latter’s Park West show in Chicago and was asked by the House star to join him onstage for some songs during his show.
“The show was great, and Hugh was great to me and my family,” Mud Morganfield told Blues Matters writer Darren Weale after the performance. “His music was a little different than what I do, but we had a ball.”
The two performed the classic Muddy Waters tune, “Walking Thru the Park” together, and Mud sang the song, “Health,” from his critically-acclaimed new CD, Son of the Seventh Son. “The people loved it,” added Morganfield. “At the end, everyone was gone from inside the theatre, but about 50 people were standing outside. When we left, the people started to clap for me as we got in the car, which was really nice. I think Hugh is a genius. Very cool cat; and a great showman.”
