Sunday music.
I bought this when I was 16. It remains my very favorite blues record ever.
When I met Stu he had volume 2. NOBODY I knew had either. Kind of like finding the slipper that fit...
Robert Johnson, King of the Delta Blues, vol. 1

Ted Gioia on the historical roots of the crossroads, music making, and Robert Johnson's deeply metaphysical blues.
I was 15 when I bought King of the Delta Blues Singers at Sam Goody Records in Kings Plaza. It was a purposeful dive based on the cover versions by British rock bands. It moved me more than words can express

Despite rumours, Robert Johnson never sang about selling his soul to the devil. The famous song "Crossroads" is probably about hitchhiking with a sly reference to earlier spirituals. But one singer did sing about the devil, the crossroads and learning guitar. The head, the tail, the whole damn thing. Check out Cousin Leroy's "Crossroads".
