"Madison Blues" is a blues song by American blues musician Elmore James. It is an upbeat Chicago-style shuffle featuring James' amplified slide guitar and vocal. He recorded it in 1960 for Chess Records, during a session that also produced "Talk to Me Baby" ("I Can't Hold Out") and "The Sun Is Shining", a follow-up to his popular single "The Sky Is Crying".[1]
