Critical reception

On AllMusic, William Ruhlmann said, "After a long period making rock records, Winter fronts the Muddy Waters band on the aptly titled Nothin' but the Blues.... Winter sounds happier than ever before on this Chicago blues workout."[1]

Parallel Forces wrote, "Released in the wake of [the Muddy Waters album] Hard Again, Nothin' but the Blues has the distinction of being recorded with the same musicians. These two albums mark the return to grace of [Johnny Winter] in the world of blues that he had somewhat neglected in previous years, devoted more to rock."[3]

gollark: Also, just using `==` to compare ~~a password and hash~~ secret values of some kind is actually somewhat unsafe because timing channel attacks.

gollark: Password hashing algorithms generally let you pass the salt as a separate parameter.
