Before Waters recorded "Hoochie Coochie Man," he tested it out at the Chicago blues club Zanzibar. Dixon gave Waters some advice before the band hit it: "Well, just get a little rhythm pattern, y'know," he said. "Do the same thing over again, y'know, and keep the words in your mind." Waters cut it a couple of weeks later, with Dixon on bass.
