The story of Robert Johnson doesn’t start or stop with his instrumental talents.
The lore behind this Delta musician runs much deeper than that -- down a road of
mystery, lore, mythology, and some say, reality. From the famous Crossroads where
Johnson allegedly sold his soul to the devil, to the purported poisoning that ended
his life, to his multiple tombstone locations, maybe no other Mississippi Delta
musician offers as much intrigue as Robert Leroy Johnson.
