And The Devil Blues |
[SYN-007 874757000725]
The myth of Robert Johnson — the young black man
who met the devil at a lonely Mississippi crossroads,
traded his soul for mastery of the blues, and paid for
that deal with a horrible early death — is just
that: a myth. Myths are hard to kill, and this one continues
to hold sway over listeners, in part because of how
it corresponds to the fundamental eeriness of Johnson’s
music. The haunting voice and guitar that power these
14 songs keep on ringing true.
