  • Description

    Robert Johnson needs little presentation. The king of the Blues "who met the Devil at the Crossroads" has had his songs covered by the likes of Led Zeppelin, Eric Clapton and The Rolling Stones. So what is different with this compilation? It is simply the best-sounding transfer of his recordings. Using newly available studio techniques and with access for the first time to the original 78s and acetates we have achieved sonic heaven! Just has to be listened to! Full liner notes written for this special release by Ken Dryden of The All Music Guide and DownBeat.
