i am fan of various music like bob dylan,johnny cash, music in general and have deep appreciation for artists like Robert Johnson and his compositions but boys please beware of one thing as you idolise and try your darndest to emulate him and his brothers who could floor a whole army with their guitar that you might end up in as dark and depressing a place as where this music generates from and not be able express it with such skill as these guys do. Bob Dylan says something in his book too
@bluessheep - don't listen to Bieber then. He'll be gone in a year's time when the 'next big thing' is thrust at us by the media. Spend your time listening to real music - there is plenty of acoustic blues on YT that's being recorded now by real people. Check out Keni Lee Burgess' channel if you haven't already.
@bluessheep why exactly do you listen to him then? I can honestly say I have not listened to that kid sing.. because I choose not to.. and I don't listen to the radio lol
@Easterknight2461 Haha, how someone who listens to such a good music can be such a dick, did he said that white stripes version is better? No, then why are you insulting him? Jack White is a great guitarist and he plays true blues, this music is about feelings and truth, so saying that only a black man from delta is allowed to play it is just crap. Think about it, if you can.
This is from before the time the blues were cool, before rock 'n roll even existed. No fake image here. This is straight from the soul and 100% genuine. Almost organic.
@Metman07 this is genuine blues man its too bad robert died with only pennies to his name he was on to a billion dollar idea of beat driven music but died young
i would love to go back in time and tell Robert Johnson "In the year 2010 people all over the world are going to listen to you on the INTERNET on a WEBSITE called YOUTUBE" Then just walk away with Robert scratchin his head bahahahaha Incredible tune here
@MeanMrMustard99 ....good thought. On the other hand, if RJ DID sell his soul to the devil, he might be in a fairly good position to see what's going on in the world today.

@indiestopmotion fuck you the white stripes will never be anywhere near as good at any aspect of music or blues than the artists they cover. The white stripes are microscopic creatures when compared to Son House, Robert Johnson, Blind WIllie Johnson, or Charley Patton. Listen2goodmusic dibsht! not the kind that takes other cultures music and ruins them
@indiestopmotion i love this version and the White Stripes version and the Rolling Stone's version and the Eric Clapton's version and the ZZ Top's version.
