60!! Got My Mojo Troping...

62* AllWomenAreLustful: "She's Nineteen Years Old"
63--> ''Nothing I can do to please her, to keep her satisfied''
64** Subverted with "Got My Mojo Working", where the mojo "just don't work on you, baby".
65* AManIsAlwaysEager: Muddy sure is. Most of his songs are about how he's really craving for a woman, most notably in "I Just Want To Make Love To You"
66* {{Anthology}}: The album provides an overview of his best work between 1947 and 1972.
67* BadassBoast: Half of his songs praise himself as a badass man: "I'm The Hoochie Coochie Man", "Mannish Boy", "Got My Mojo Working", "I Can Never Be Satisfied".

70* FaceOnTheCover: Muddy posing with his guitar.
71* GreatestHitsAlbum: A highly praised compilation album that gives a good overview of his career.

73* IntercourseWithYou: Typical for Muddy's repertoire most of his songs are about him craving for women.
74* MundaneMadeAwesome: "Mean Red Spider", a song about a red spider, that nevertheless is a great, powerful blues track.

76* OneManSong: "Hoochie Coochie Man", "Mannish Boy", "Country Boy".
77* OneWomanSong: "Gypsy Woman", "Little Geneva".
78%%* RatedMForManly: You're probably never gonna hear such a masculine singer as Muddy.
