Can't Be Satisfied Zusammenfassung

Can't Be Satisfied: The Life and Times of Muddy Waters Robert Gordon

'Can't Be Satisfied is that rare thing in musical biographies: a book that maps out not just a single, extraordinary life but the cultural forces that shaped it' Sean O'Hagan, Observer

Muddy Waters was the greatest blues musician ever, and the most influential. He invented electric blues, inspired the Rolling Stones and created the template for the rock 'n' roll band and its wild lifestyle.

Robert Gordon's definitive biography vividly chronicles the extraordinary life and personality of the musical legend who changed the course of modern popular music.

Can't Be Satisfied Bewertungen

A superb compendium of scholarship . . . this book is likely to remain the definitive Muddy study. -- Michel Faber * * Scotland on Sunday * *
Can't Be Satisfied is that rare thing in musical biographies: a book that maps out not just a single, extraordinary life but the cultural forces that shaped it and the cultural changes which that same life then helped to bring about. -- Sean O'Hagan * * Observer * *
Gordon gets the deep lowdown on the original Rolling Stone. A major feat of research and a fascinating read. -- Jay McInerney
The strenghts of Can't Be Satisfied lie in Robert Gordon's broad knowledge of the blues scene. He deftly puts each song and incident into its context. His exceptional understanding of the genre is best shown in his treatment of its ultimate irony - the creation of wealth through the depiction of poverty. -- Charlie Campbell * * Literary Review * *
Robert Gordon has produced an immensely readable biography, as rowdy and dangerous as its subject. . . There'll be no need for another Muddy Waters biography, this will do handsomely. -- Neil Slaven * * Blues & Rhythm * *
A blues tome to be treasured ... an unrepeatable feat of scholarship -- Michael Heatley * * Record Collector * *
