  • @rmurbach1961 of course David Honeyboy Edwards would claim ownership of it. Johnson recorded it first. There isn't any evidence that Edwards wrote it to my knowledge...

  • @Freethinker12341 According to his autobiography, Sweet Home Chicago was written by David Honeyboy Edwards, who also happened to be with Robert Johnson the night he died from drinking poisoned whiskey.

  • the legendary johnny shines in the video too robert johnson do write this song!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • sonny boy williamson released this song on some chess cuts and he traveled whit robert johnson too

  • can anyone tell me if itunes has this track yet?please write back!

  • @0ttaR0cker ya robert jr probably wrote it

  • As a musician myself, I have many songs that I have written but don't feel strongly enough about recording... I'm sure Robert had plenty of songs.. Maybe Robert Jr. Learned some of these tunes... Not as far fetched as one would think. Robert Jr. Was Mr. Johnsons Step-Son after all..

  • its a myth.. about johnson´s 30th song

  • Port Chicago was a significant source of employment military munitions and naval base, scene of tragic explosion/mutiny and more The song is about Port Chicago. Many blues singers were aware of this despite the fact that it is often thought of and sung about and understood as though it's the "Other Chicago" more so of course the commercial and thriving hub of post delta electric blues and killing floors and all the rest

  • I always thought Johnson meant a round trip, going to California, from there to Des Moines, Iowa, and back to Chicago.
