Robert Johnson stands at the crossroads of American music. He became the first modern bluesman, evolving the country blues of the Mississippi Delta. Johnson was a songwriter of searing depth and a guitar player with a commanding ability that inspired every blues artist that followed in his wake. This compilation contains his most celebrated numbers, compiling 20 master recordings waxed in San Antonio and Dallas, between 1936 and 1937. Highlights include 'Sweet Home Chicago', 'Come On in My Kitchen', 'Love in Vain Blues', 'I Believe I'll Dust My Broom', and Johnson's biggest hit 'Terraplane Blues', a popular song on jukeboxes throughout the South.
