17: EP 17: Robert Johnson (Part 1) - Origins To The Crossroads

Lyrics Of Their Life - The Music Biography Podcast

In this episode we delve into one of the most haunting and mysterious story's in music history as we go in depth surrounding the origins of Robert Johnson. Raised in the Delta/Mississippi region in the early 1900's filled with racism, paranoia and hard times working in the fields. How did an amateur musician seemingly become a pro blues musician overnight? Did he in fact sell his soul to the devil at the crossroads? Or did he acquire his skills elsewhere? We also discuss the major events that would cause him to venture down a more sinful path and much more. Tune in now for the first installment of this 2 part episode, with part 2 to be released next fortnight. Enjoy!
