someone could play the guitar the way he did and sing at the same time. – Bonnie Raitt

Robert Johnson is arguably the most well known figure in the history of the blues. Though the 29 songs Johnson recorded from 1936-1937 had little impact during his lifetime, a collection of his singles, entitled King of the Delta Blues Singers was released in 1961 and found wide-spread recognition. Then, 30 years later, The Complete Recordings of Robert Johnson was released selling over one million copies. the first blues recording to do so, winning a Grammy in the process.

Since that 1961 LP, players from all different musical backgrounds have sought to learn Robert Johnson’s techniques and in this 3 Part set, with over 5 hours and 52 minutes of instruction, Tom Feldmann covers every aspect of Johnson’s playing. Each song is performed by Feldmann before he dissects the arrangement verse-by-verse and ends with a split screen segment where the song is played slowly with close up shots of both the left and right hands.
