Why, hello again. Today I have something very special for you. This double cd, The Complete Blind Willie Johnson, is essential listening. These songs, bluesy and spiritual, were first recorded for Columbia Records in 5 different sessions, from 1927-1930. Known as one of the best delta slide guitarists, he's had an undeniable influence on later musicians, including Led Zeppelin (his picture is in their second album), Son House, Bob Dylan, Beck, and the White Stripes, who have all covered at least one of his songs. His guttural, bassy voice is unmatched, and the guitar work is wonderful too! Perhaps greatest of all is that the sound has been uncomprimised for 80 years; each recording sounds incredibly authentic. Have him play for you at home, or maybe drive around and have him in your backseat, because when you listen to this it sounds as if he's right there with you. Blind Willie Johnson has a tremendous force behind his music, and it should not be missed by anyone! Crucial listening for delta blues fans.
