Search - Robert Johnson :: Genius of the Blues

The only complete compilation in one CD of the masterful recordings made by the legendary Delta bluesman. Only master takes were used. Robert Johnson is one of the most celebrated figures in blues history. Although he died when he was just twenty-seven years old, his impact on blues culture and blues mythology, as well as his influence on the development of blues guitar styles, has been substantial to say the least. Johnson's recording catalog adds up to a grand total of only twenty-nine tracks yet most blues scholars and critics agree that there is more than enough music available to proclaim Johnson a musical genius. Also includes new cover sleeve, artwork and photographs. Definitive Records. 2005.
