Which famous classic rock band's name was inspired by a Muddy Waters song?

song was originally by rev ray wilkins on a very low tuned and erie fingerpicked guitar

LoonyHydra80, assuming you mean Rev Robert Wilkins (I don't know a Ray) the two songs have very similar names but are different songs entirely. Muddy Waters song "Rollin' Stone" is actually his rendition of "Catfish Blues" which is an old Delta Blues song. (I absolutely LOVE Muddy Waters!)

I mixed sound for Muddy Waters at a late-night gig in London in about 1971. When we arrived at the venue we were surprised to find four brand new Ampeg amplifier stacks already on the stage as a gift from Mick Jagger and the Stones. Talk about gratitude and attribution.🙂

Dear Charlie Watts passed away a few days ago. Rest in peace Charlie, thanks for all the fun.

In a previous question the original name was given as The Rollin’ Stones and apparently changed to The Rolling Stones by a record company

Montana Lady, Love the movie, (CADILLAC RECORDS)

MOH YEAH !!! "CATALAC spell Cadillac

town01, haha good to see that irony is alive and well!

town01, yeah you're a flash in the pan you have no idea what you're talking about

Genius, well if you think about it the Rolling Stones and the Beatles are fantastic bands but they sing two different types of music and the stones Blow The Beatles away just saying

LoonyHydra80, the best rock group ever and my old man in 1964 said they'd never last
