He was recorded in Mississippi by Alan Lomax for the Library of Congress in 1941. In 1943, he moved to Chicago to become a full-time professional musician. In 1946, he recorded his first records for Columbia Records and then for Aristocrat Records, a newly formed label run by brothers Leonard and Phil Chess.<\/span><\/div><div dir=\"auto\">\u00a0<\/div><div dir=\"auto\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px;\">In the early 1950s, Muddy Waters and his band\u2014Little Walter Jacobs on harmonica, Jimmy Rogers on guitar, Elga Edmonds (also known as Elgin Evans) on drums and Otis Spann on piano\u2014recorded several blues classics, some with the bassist and songwriter Willie Dixon.
