Robert johnson was born in Hazelhurst, Mississippi. 19 14 The family moved to Memphis until 19 18, when his stepfather sent him to Abai and leatherman Plantations near Robinsonville. There, he began to sing with some old musicians and perform with Willie Brown Jr.. Soon, Brown's collaborator Charlie Barton came here, and robert johnson performed with them. 1930, my son House left Pachman Farm and came to Robinsonville. His guitar playing deeply influenced robert johnson, making him give up singing and pick up the guitar. House and Brown formed a band and went to church park in Memphis to earn tips. Robert johnson followed them. After the performance, when they get together for a drink, House, Brown and Barton will laugh at his rookie guitar skills, so the young man left Robinsonville and returned to Hazelhurst. King of Delta Blues Singers
Hazelhurst is near Crystal Springs in Mississippi, where the famous guitarist Tommy Johnson lives. Robert johnson got married there. Besides practicing guitar, he also learned new songs from the phonograph. He fell in love with and imitated the local guitarist Ike Sinneman. A few months later, Johnson returned to Robinsonville and showed people his superb guitar skills and many new songs he learned (from famous singers Lonnie Johnson, Skip James, Pitty Wheat Straw, Scrapper Blackwell and Kocomo Arnold). People are amazed at his progress. Some people believe that he met at a crossroads and traded his soul for a guitar. Although all Johnson's songs are covered by others, he gives people a feeling of confusion, loneliness and eccentricity. It seems that every blues musician likes to wander (in our nature or for living? ), robert johnson is no exception. He performed everywhere, covering the midwest, the east coast and even Canada, leaving his footprints in coal mines, underground bars, docks and small hotels, which also made his singing have the most extensive influence.
Robert johnson recorded it twice in his life, the first time in San Antonio, Texas,1936165438+10, and the second time in Dallas, Texas, 1937, which was an unparalleled recording.
His success ended in a poisoning one year later (it is believed that a shopkeeper seduced by robert johnson poisoned him), and he died soon after, that is 1938 August 16. He was buried in Mount Zion Cemetery in Greenwood, Mississippi, and then transferred to Mount Payne Cemetery.
Robert johnson made a deal with the devil, sold his soul to the devil, shortened his life, in exchange for his talent of playing blues and writing.

It summarizes the blues before this album and guides the blues after this album. Robert johnson is undoubtedly the most important blues guitarist in history. This album is not the starting point of blues, but it is the starting point of cultivating great guitarists like eric clapton, Jimmy Page, Duane orman and jeff baker.

Eric clapton was deeply influenced by robert johnson. He put it this way: robert johnson is the most important blues musician to me. He is real, absolute, has his own ideas, and music as profound as mine has poured in in the past 30 years. I have never met anyone more affectionate than robert johnson. His music is still the most powerful cry. I think you can find the voice in the world, really. I know, when I first heard it, what it said seemed to echo in my confusion, yes, I always felt it.
