Recorded: Place ?, November 23, 1936 Robert Johnson (g) (vcl) Robert Leroy Johnson (May 8, 1911 — August 16, 1938) is among the most famous of Delta blues musicians. His landmark recordings from 1936–1937 display a remarkable combination of singing, guitar skills, and songwriting talent that have influenced generations of musicians. Johnsons shadowy, poorly documented life and death at age 27 have given rise to much legend.

Moje Podróże Do Żródeł Bluesa

Now this is gonna be a xinger, it means its gonna fly out the door

He would be amazed about how big he is today, and how many people he have influenced. But then he started to notice a youtube hater comment, and then another, and then he noticed youtube is full of garbage comments, except from a few, and he would look back on his coffin and he would write a last blues song, and go back home.
aye just love this song. just a powerful piece of music. Inspired me to try the slide guitar.

The original 27.
Quem sabe tudo de Robert é Eric Clapton. Clapton sempre fiel ao Blues. Clapton knows everything on Robert, and always keep his fidelity to the Blues. The real Blues from Delta.
Best regards kids!
that’s a good attitude; watch how much better your music will be vs their autotuned, pre-packaged belligerency
people use sex and substances in an attempt to combat the futility of existence all the time. furthermore, alcohol, like all drugs, is a depressant
Who are the 2 idiots that disliked this?

Technical point: Reel to reel tape didn’t exist back then. Recordings were done direct to disc.
