Robert Johnson was most influenced by Willie Brown, Son House, Charley Patton, and Lonnie Johnson, all of whom were local musicians in the Clarksdale/Greenwood area. He especially liked Lonnie Johson and often falsely claimed to be Lonnie's brother. There was also a local unrecorded guitar player named Ike Zinneman who spent a year mentoring Robert. Son House said Robert Johnson was a musical laughingstock before Robert spent a year under the tutelage of Ike Zinneman.
