Crossing Muddy Waters

Crossing Muddy Waters is singer-songwriter John Hiatt's fifteenth album, released in 2000. A raw album recorded with no drummer, it was a purely acoustic album that brought elements of bluegrass music into his Americana sound. (The title of the album is a pun, referencing blues legend Muddy Waters.) It was nominated for a Grammy award in 2001 for Best Contemporary Folk Album.

gollark: This is perfect and without flaw.
gollark: Okay, I reached a "satisfying" "compromise" with something: link URLs are converted into snake_case. When you actually visit the associated page, it looks it up in the database in Title Case. A page can then define a title override which affects how it actually displays.
gollark: Big disks?
gollark: EFI support?
gollark: Partition UUIDs?
