Robert Johnson as well. Both are towering giants in the blues genre.
Johnson apparently died when he sold his soul to the devil as well...true story you know
Yes, you speak a lot of truth there

But, I think the greatest blues writer ever has to have been Willie Dixon.
A bit of Elmore James to make everybody dance
