Americana Deluxe

Americana Deluxe is the second studio album by Big Bad Voodoo Daddy. This album is also sometimes called Big Bad Voodoo Daddy, as the album cover prominently displays a stylized "Big Bad Voodoo Daddy" logo and does not feature the phrase "Americana Deluxe" on it. However, the liner notes and the band's website clearly show that the true title is indeed Americana Deluxe.

gollark: ddg! Solomonoff induction
