Robert Lockwood Jr 'Black Spider Blues, 1941' Delta Blues Guitar Legend

[Sheindie]

the Robert Johnson lived with Robert Jr. Lockwood's mom for 3 years and taught Robert 'Jr.' how to play - Robert Johnson was NOT one to share his techniques or talents ... he must've really liked Robert Lockwood!

You hear Lonnie Johnson in Robert Jr's playing at 1:34?

In the book "The road to Robert Johson" by Edward Komara its noted on page 69.."Johnson commentator Bob Groom reported learning from Lockwood that "black spider blues" and "Take a little walk" were originally Robert Johnson Blues".

also noted same page.. "black spider blues is based on kindhearted woman blues"

[svedbus]

it sounds a bit like ''me and the devil blues'' by robert johnson.

Did anyone see him at Eric Claptons guitar festival in 2004. Probably the last of his significant performances.

[bootlegpreacher]

No, but I saw him in 2006 in Helena, Arkansas.

chuckrox Saw him in Vancouver ,2096-nothing at all insignificant about it -the place was reverently quiet and entertained by a 92 year old with total command.Fabulous show!
