- McKinley Morganfield (April 4, 1913-April 30, 1983), known as Muddy Waters, was an American blues musician. He is considered the "father of modern Chicago blues" and was a major inspiration for the British blues explosion of the 1960s.
- Muddy Waters was an American blues musician and is generally considered "the father of Chicago blues." His career spanned over thirty years and he produced what are considered to be some of the finest blues songs ever. Muddy Waters is generally considered one of the most influential bluesmen of all time. His fondness for playing in mud earned him the nickname "Muddy" at an early age. He later changed it to "Muddy Water" and finally "Muddy Waters".
- Morganfield's depression got off to a strong start when his mother died during the act of childbirth. Reportedly, the freshly-born McKinley was too exhausted to cry, being pushed and rolled around by "the woman" for the last nine months without end. Getting evicted from the comfort of the womb was the last straw. The midwife, mistakenly assuming the depressed baby to be dead, left him to rot in the gutter, which filled up with muddy water from the sheets of rain pouring down overhead.
- Muddy Waters grew up on Stovall Plantation near Clarksdale, Mississippi and by age seventeen was playing the guitar at parties, emulating local blues artists Son House and Robert Johnson. He was recorded by Alan Lomax there for the Library of Congress in 1941. In 1943, he headed to Chicago with the hope of becoming a full-time professional musician, eventually recording, in 1946, for first Columbia and then Aristocrat Records, a newly formed label run by brothers Leonard and Phil Chess.
- Bluesmusiker, sehr genial der Mann. Vertreter des Chicagoblues. Wurde gleichsam über Nacht berühmt, was ihn selber am meisten überraschte. Er hat sich beim Lastwagenfahren selbst im Radio gehört. Ich weiß bloß nicht, ob es jetzt "Little Red Rooster" oder "Mannish Boy" war. Er war einer der ersten, der den elektrischen Blues spielte, d.h. der eine E-Guitare benutzte. Waters gehörte zu den einflußreichsten Bluesern, viele (weiße) Rockbands der 60er und 70er wurden von ihm beeinflußt. Die Rolling Stones haben angeblich aus einer seiner Liedzeilen ihren Namen her.
- The contestants are divided into equal teams. One at a time, they race through an obstacle course. They crawl under a low cage (or walk across a series of balance beams), clamber up a steep slope and slide down into a mud pit. They then search for a bag of balls buried in a designated mud pit. Upon retrieving the bag of balls, the contestant crawls under a wooden bar by digging through a pit of rice. Upon reaching the mat, the next team-mate may begin the course. Once all teammates have reached the end, the balls must be thrown into a narrow tube about as high as a basketball hoop. The first team to sink all their balls into the tube wins the challenge.
- Peel was a fan of Muddy Waters since his teens [1] and on his BFBS show of 10 April 1997 (BFBS) described how he bought probably the first Blues LP of the artist after playing 'Long Distance Call' by the musician: "Possibly the first blues LP I bought: certainly, I bought it when I was in the army meself and took it back home when I was on leave one weekend and played it to my mum. My mother, a woman of extraordinary judgement and taste, thought it was one of the best things she'd ever heard, and she was quite right."

My mother, a woman of extraordinary judgement and taste, thought it was one of the best things she'd ever heard, and she was quite right." Certainly Muddy Waters was a major influence on the blues artists who were strongly featured on Peel's programmes of the late 1960s. Among those whose cover versions of Muddy's material appear in show playlists are the Jeff Beck Group, Canned Heat, the John Dummer Blues Band, Davey Graham, Jo-Ann Kelly. the Rolling Stones and Ten Years After. On 08 February 2000, Peel mentioned that his children seemed to be developing similar musical tastes (for Muddy Waters and Culture), for which he was gratified. Peel also personally influenced one artist by introducing him to the music of Muddy Waters; he mentioned on 06 July 2004 that, while living in San Bernardino in California in the Sixties, he played a Muddy Waters track to visiting guitarist Buddy Reed, setting him on the path of a career playing the Blues.

In 1943, he headed to Chicago with the hope of becoming a full-time professional musician, eventually recording, in 1946, for first Columbia and then Aristocrat Records, a newly formed label run by brothers Leonard and Phil Chess. In the early 1950s, Muddy and his band, Little Walter Jacobs on harmonica, Jimmy Rogers on guitar, Elgin Evans on drums and Otis Spann on piano, recorded a series of blues classics, some with bassist/songwriter Willie Dixon, including "Hoochie Coochie Man", "I Just Want to Make Love to You" and "I'm Ready". In 1958, Muddy headed to England, helping to lay the foundations of the subsequent blues boom there, and in 1960 performed at the Newport Jazz Festival, recorded and released as his first live album, At Newport 1960. Muddy's influence is tremendous, not just on blues and rhythm and blues but on rock 'n' roll, hard rock, folk, jazz, and country; his use of amplification is often cited as the link between Delta blues and rock 'n' roll.

Getting evicted from the comfort of the womb was the last straw. The midwife, mistakenly assuming the depressed baby to be dead, left him to rot in the gutter, which filled up with muddy water from the sheets of rain pouring down overhead. Morganfield was noticed and taken in by a genial vicar who happened to wander nearby on the way to the YMCA, who raised him for the entirety of his difficult, angsty childhood in the rural badlands near Biloxi, Mississippi. Young Muddy, then just known as Young McKinley, was plagued by punishing sessions of explosive diarrhea, an unfortunately frequent occurrence that earned him the derisive nickname of "Muddy Waters" amongst his peers. However, Muddy contested this origin of his nickname until his day of death, insisting that his legendary moniker couldn't have "come out of some stupid shit joke," in his autobiography Bridge over Muddied Waters: The Muddy Waters Story. "Everybody shits," he continued, "but tons of other stuff about mud and water happened to me in my life. Just go back a little in this book and find out for yourself. Remember the thing with the midwife? It isn't all about shit jokes." The constant explosive diarrhea became less frequent in his teens until he eventually outgrew it; in turn, he accomplished more than most present-day blues historians, who still dwell on the issue and snicker at the phrase "constant explosive diarrhea".

In Survivor: San Juan del Sur each tribe had to race to dig up a bag buried in the sand, which contained two keys. They had then to crawl through the mud and use one of the keys to open a gate. The next step was to shake a basket to release sandbags. Once a tribe had collected all their sandbags, then two tribe members had to attempt to land those sandbags on wobbly platforms.
