“A brisk account of Waters’s journey from the cotton fields of Mississippi to the clubs of Chicago and beyond. . . . With this entertaining and important book, Robert Gordon has made sure that future generations will never forget the original rolling stone.”

“Compelling.... Can’t Be Satisfied is a biography that reads like a great suspense novel.”

“Gordon tells the tale with deeply researched hellaciousness; he doesn’t let Muddy off the hook for bad behavior, and he nails the sound of men beating on the devil with guitars.”

“Not only a penetrating portrait of the man but also a biography of the blues itself... Superb.”
