Including perhaps the most influential single session in blues history, this set contains all 41 recordings Robert Johnson made. His tenor and falsetto tell you of the complicated emotions harbored by an acutely perceptive blues musician in the denigratory South; so does his guitar playing, which amazingly often mixes leads with chords. Johnson's thematic lyrics -- further bespeaking his restlessness, fatalism, and defiance -- are stately in their imagery. The Complete Recordings of Robert Johnson |
