This album is a timeless recording of the origins of modern blues and rock'n'roll (go ask Eric Clapton and Keith Richards, among others, which artist inspired them the most) and everybody should own it.

Reading about the power inherent in Robert Johnson's music is one thing, but actually experiencing it is another matter entirely.

Johnson had become so scary good that he played the blues with canny ferocity and left Charley Patton, Willie Brown and Son House stupefied. That was the moment when rumors started circulating. Regardless of Johnson's excellent skills, during his brief life he didn't record very often. Half were never released until Columbia Records reissued them in LP form for the first time in 1961 as Robert Johnson: The King of the Delta Blues Singers Vol. I, while Volume II was published in 1970. Renowned journalist and music historian Greil Marcus has hailed Vol I as the most important record of all time. At the time it was released it inspired a whole new generation, such as blues collectors or folk music revivalists, who championed his work.

September 16, 2004 4:00AM ET. King Of The Delta Blues Singers (Volume 2). By. Tom Moon. It’s packages like this that turn ordinary music lovers into cynics: First, Legacy bundled mythic bluesman Robert Johnson’s entire recorded output into the 1990 two-disc collection The Complete Recordings, and since then the label has unbundled the limited trove for different single volumes - one for the Martin Scorsese Blues project, now two patterned after the original LP releases.

Robert Johnson wasn't just King of the Delta blues; he was one of its founding fathers, and these re-mastered tunes are as timeless and important today as they were all those years ago. The songs that passed into the blues canon, to be covered by countless guitarists over the years, are here: "Crossroad Blues," "Preaching Blues," "Come On In My Kitchen," "Walking Blues," and more. The release of his album in 1961 had a huge impact on the music industry, in particular the still fledgling Rock n' Roll. Early artists, especially with the British musicians like Eric Clapton and Robert Plant. Robert Johnson is considered by many to be the greatest Blues artist that ever lived.
