I grew up on Rolling Stones, Cream, Them, The Doors, Led Zeppelin, Canned Heat, etc. Then I found out where a lot of their songs came from.. struggling Black blues musicians with cheap guitars in the 30s and 40s.. 😭😩 May they have glory in heaven!
@annemcnamara9978 ай бұрын
good point. about the cheap guitars. those $ 35,000 vintage guitars the hedge fund guys buy (and can hardly play) are not the instruments guys like robert johnson played. robert johnson was broke. the guitar he is holding in the famous photograph belonged to the recording studio. there were times when white bullies destroyed his guitars because he was a black man.

@@annemcnamara997anyone who plays the blues really should appreciate this fact. the genre was born out of both the strife and beauty of African American culture at the time. and to be a true blues musician I think you have to acknowledge the humanity and soul brought by this. For example, while I think Rory Gallagher was technically a blues rock musician due to some of the tempos he played at, he understood where the blues came from and that's why even though he mainly played a stratocaster on stage he was a player of cheap guitars as well since that's what his hero's played. It is definitely a genre that requires a genuine soul and an empathy for those who struggle but choose to strive for a better life anyways. This makes the blues always culturally relevant in some form as while many things might have changed, the problems have not gone away for society, they have only changed appearance. Having a ridiculously unneeded les paul from whenever the "golden years" were meant to be wont make that change. hell for a long time no one valued guitars like Les Pauls highly until someone famous played them and then there was enough demand that vintage guitar nonsense was profitable.
@daveweed27654 ай бұрын
You know if you break the "Legend" down you will find that other musical influences other than poor black musicians with cheap guitars. If I am not mistaken Robert Johnson was a joke. He left for a time and came back and blew them all away. Claimed he sold his soul to the devil at what is now 49 and 61 in Clarksdale Ms. In actuality according to a Guitar Magazine article maybe 15 years ago he went to Arkansas and learned how to play. No one knows from who or where at but the Legend was born. And yes this is the basis of Rock and Roll. As for the actual crossroads. 61 is a limited access 4 lane median devided hwy. But that whole region from Yazoo City where 49 splits to 49W and 49E and reconnects south of Clarksdale is strange feeling. 6 pm and getting on 61N hardly any traffic. Hell 49W seems out of time and space for that area. I think these blues musicians picked up on that. It a good place to take a road trip and so much musical history but there is a wierd feeling and probably one of the few routes east of I35 you can run with your brightlights for miles without having to dim them for oncoming traffic.

@drdre43973 жыл бұрын
First of all, it's not the "Harmony", you are referring to the "Melody". Secondly, the reason you haven't heard it is because it had a hell of a lot more to do with the old recording and the way the guitar was picked up by the mic. Thirdly, Robert Johnson learned guitar at 21 and no one was playing blues on the piano, at that time it was all jazz. So the notion this melody has anything to do with or is inspired by a piano is totally wrong. It clearly sounds like acoustic slide blues. I am guessing that you heard blues music in the 50s that had a lot of piano, that was inspired by Robert Johnson and not the other way around, and then made this connection in your mind. Blues is built on the I-IV-V and Robert Johnson started that and was the godfather of that.
@syd-nee3 жыл бұрын
@@drdre4397 I did mean harmony in reference to parts like 0:39 . and the piano reference did not mean inspired by. just that one could make the comparison in overall sound not that they took from each other. as well as that but in others like Sweet home Chicago and Kind Hearted Woman, the precision of the picking in the rhythm parts of the guitar sound like piano without legato tone. Robert wasn't inspired by piano obviously just that with hindsight his playing style sounds comparable. really In my original comment I didn't elaborate enough and you misinterpreted what I mean.

Robert Leroy Johnson (May 8, 1911 - August 16, 1938) was an American blues musician and songwriter. His landmark recordings in 1936 and 1937 display a combination of singing, guitar skills, and song-writing talent that has influenced later generations of musicians. Although his recording career spanned only seven months, he is recognized as a master of the blues, particularly the Delta blues style, and one of the most influential musicians of the 20th century. The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame describes him as perhaps "the first ever rock star". As a traveling performer who played mostly on street corners, in juke joints, and at Saturday night dances, Johnson had little commercial success or public recognition in his lifetime. He participated in only two recording sessions, one in San Antonio in 1936, and one in Dallas in 1937, that produced 29 distinct songs (with 13 surviving alternate takes) recorded by Don Law. These songs, recorded solo in improvised studios, were the totality of his recorded output. Most were released as 10-inch, 78 rpm singles from 1937-1938, with a few released after his death. Other than these recordings, very little was known of him during his life outside of the small musical circuit in the Mississippi Delta where he spent most of his life. Much of his story has been reconstructed by researchers. Johnson's poorly documented life and death have given rise to much legend. The one most closely associated with him is that he sold his soul to the devil at a local crossroads to achieve musical success. From Wikipedia.

The reason this is so powerful and soulful is because he wasn't money motivated. He did it for the pure love of the blues and telling his stories. (His music only started making money around 30 years after his death).

Well the devil only promised him fame within the span of his life so accordingly his talents were supernaturally adjusted to what sounded good at the time in that era of existence. Which is the ultimate joke of it all. Even though the devil promised fame he didn't have to offer much support therefore dropping the value of Roberts soul without him really realizing it. If he would've made that deal today he'd be the best in our era of music showing that music only really has power in it's relevance. Sell your soul to the devil for the ability to escape his deal then you will have created your own paradox therefore voiding the deal just to show how much you don't give a fuck lol.
