Robert Lockwood, Jr. - Sweet Home Chicago

God bless the man, after that many years still has a lusting drive for the blues.

To mikespikeforlife - This was the first song Johnson taught Lockwood. It took him three weeks to learn it. Within a short period of time he was going out with Johnson and people couldn't tell who was who he had immulated Johnson so well. Johnson was dating his mother at the time. The person who comes on stage to adjust the mic, that's me. This story came from Robert himself.

The best. A living legend. It looks like he took a 12 string but only uses 6 strings. I assume it gives him more space between the strings, which makes it easier to finger pick. Hard to find such a wide neck on a regular 6 string axe, other than classical types.

to think this guy was taught by ROBERT JOHNSON. I am so jealous... imagine what a nostalgia it must be being this man at 91 and playing this song. he was probably there when it was written

it would be kinda cool if they brought a young blues artist that could play you know from a bar band or something but knew his stuff and had him talk to the students........ For instance have you ever heard that guy from saturday night live boy can he play that would be good for the students to hear the blues from someone from their age group that they could relate too, dont you think?

91 years old... woah

"good evenin' ladies and gentelemen. would y'all do me a favor and give everyone that up here tonight a big applause. "

Please: Can somebody tell me what he´s sayin in the beginning after: WOULD YOU ALL DO ME A LIL FAVOR`` thx alot

and he in turn taught Luther Tucker.

johnny shines met and played with Robert Johnson also
