I think Robert Johnson died doing what he loved. He wasn't trying to live the richest lifestyle, he only wanted to be good at what he loved. Today, for a lot of musicians, it is about the money, and not for the love of the art. Some ppl can take a lesson from this story.

I knew Mr. Robert Lockwood Jr., if you know your Blues then you know he was the only person taught by Robert Johnson, whom was his Step Father. He took the Jr. in respect to Mr. Johnson. This was finally proven by the exhumed Helena Arkansas censuses. He was one of my mentors along with DC Carnes whom played with him as second guitar for 17 years. We had done a bit of a Pilgrimage from Nashville, Memphis, Sun Records, Beale St, WC Handy Ground Zero, Cat Fish Records, Riverside Motel, Clarksdale & all the rest ending up joining him & his All Stars band at the Helena Heritage Blues Fest in Oct.2006, just shortly before he passed & received his long awaited Grammy. He told me where the real crossroads are the dirt one is the Crossroads according to Robert Lockwood. While we were there, he said he was in the cemetery at the Little Mt. Zion Church at the end of Old Money Road. He said he was under a spit pecan tree, and sure enough he was EXACTLY where Mr. Robert said he was. We paid our respects. I took home some pecan leaves, that I ended up putting in with Mr. Robert when we laid him to rest. The Cemetery you are at under the pecan tree is his final resting place according to his step child Robert Lockwood Jr.

Did Robert Johnson actually sell his soul to play his music??? Well only Robert and the Devil, well and God. As for the rest of us. We'll never know for sure!!! No one is actually 100% sure where the crossroads are, or where Robert is actually buried. Plaques and tombstones tell the legend but no one is actually sure. Personally when he disappeared I think he practiced and got good at his trade. I don't think he would have needed to sell his soul. Lyrics are lyrics and legends sell music. Although, being that I wasn't there either he could have and being that the greatest feat the devil ever pulled off was convincing the world he doesn't exist. And as for the crossroads, the devil will find you for a proposition. So any one who may have run across the devil, they may not have needed a crossroad. The crossroads are symbolic in following God or Following the other!!!

Anyone that doesnt turn to Jesus Christ or wont turn to Christ has made their decision already for satan, whether you realize it or not. Turn to Jesus today, He will save you if you ask, believe, and repent. We are all lost sinners till we accept Jesus. Hell is a real place, and its not a party as some imagine. Every knee will bow to Christ, either in repentance to Him as Saviour and Lord or as a lost soul to be judged and doomed to hell, but you will bow. So bow now while you can, tomorrow may be to late. The road that leads to hell is wide, and many enter therein, but the road to heaven is narrow, and few therebe that find it. Jesus Christ is that narrow road. 🙏 ✝️ ❤

Lots of Urban Legend around Robert Johnson’s actual gravesite...there’s actually up to three sites that claim to be it.

That is the crossroads for tourist, not the real crossroads! The city put it there to drive tourist into the city instead of to an out of the way rural location.

If the devil's deal legend were true, it would probably have happened in another quieter crossroad and closer to Dockery don you think?
