Robert Johnson died on this day in 1938, at the age of 27, near Greenwood, Mississippi, of unknown causes. His death was not reported publicly; he merely disappeared from the historical record and it was not until almost 30 years later, when Gayle Dean Wardlow, a Mississippi-based musicologist researching Johnson's life, found his death certificate, which listed only the date and location, with no official cause of death. No formal autopsy was done, as a dead black man found by the side of the road near a farm, a pro forma examination was done to file the death certificate, and no immediate cause of death was determined. It is likely he had congenital syphilis and it was suspected later by medical professionals that may have been a contributing factor in his death. However, many years of local legend and oral tradition had, like the rest of his life story, built a legend which has filled in gaps in the scant historical record.

Robert Johnson 2nd take Crossroads acetate discovered
'Uploaded by sound restorer Nick Dellow, it was originally made in 1940 straight from the metal master by Columbia Records producer George Avakian, who would go on to work with everyone from Miles Davis to Edith Piaf to John Cage...perhaps the unprecedented clarity of this recording will get the hair of young musicians and mature connoisseurs alike standing on end'

Everything we know, we learnt from Robert Johnson.
The crossroads is what makes life worth living. Never stand still. Constant revolution. Otherwise there’s no music, no art, no real life. We all sell our souls at some point. The important thing is to sell them for the right reasons. Nobody can have it all – but you can have rock ’n’ roll, if you let yourselves.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yd60nI4sa9A

"Seminal blues historian Elijah Wald says that Robert Johnson didn't learn how to incorporate the occult into his poetry and project his macho stage persona from the devil himself. It was from, among others, the man who called himself 'The Devil's Son-in-Law', Peetie Wheatstraw.

Me and Mr. Johnson
Slowhand's tribute to Delta blues legend Robert Johnson is released on March 23, 2004. The 14 covers are a "labor of love" and a long-held goal for Clapton to pay homage to one of his main musical influences. The band is a tad legendary, too -- Billy Preston on keyboards, Steve Gadd on drums, Nathan East on bass and Doyle Bramhall II. #ericclapton #slowhand #meandmrjohnson #blues #deltablues #robertjohnson #billypreston #stevegadd #music #musicsky…
