29 Robert Johnson (1911-1938) “Hell Hound on My Trail” 1937

“Robert Johnson is a chilling confrontation with aspects of the American consciousness. He is a visionary artist with a terrible kind of information about his time and place and personal experience.” His first wife and her baby died in childbirth (Blue’s Who’s Who). His 1936-1937 recordings are listed on the National Recording Registry of the Library of Congress.
