Grateful Dead Family Discography: Hoochie Coochie Man

Hoochie Coochie Man

Composer: Willie Dixon

Hoochie Coochie Man was played by the Grateful Dead once only during a soundcheck on 2nd July 1995. The song was performed by Pigpen and Peter Albin at the Tangent in Palo Alto on an unspecified date in 1964. It was played by Phil Lesh with Buddy Guy, John Mayer and others at the Jammys in 2005.

Hoochie Coochie Man was written by Willie Dixon in 1953 and first recorded by Muddy Waters, for Chess Records, early in 1954. Willie Dixon played bass on the recording. This recording was released on a single (78 and 45 rpm) with the title I'm Your Hoochie Cooche Man. This longer title was used on a number of early recordings but Hoochie Coochie Man eventually became the standard title of the song.
