The Complete Recordings [Columbia #1]

The Complete Recordings [Columbia #1] (1990) more music like this

by Robert Johnson

A double-disc box set containing everything Robert Johnson ever recorded, The Complete Recordings is essential listening, but it is also slightly problematic. The problems aren't in the music itself, of course, which is stunning and the fidelity of the recordings is the best it ever has been or ever will be. Instead, it's in the track sequencing. ...

Me and Mr. Johnson

Me and Mr. Johnson (2004) more music like this

by Eric Clapton

Ten years after his first all-blues album, From the Cradle, Eric Clapton released Me and Mr. Johnson, an album-length tribute to his hero, the legendary bluesman Robert Johnson. Not that this is the first time Clapton has paid tribute to Johnson. Throughout his career, Clapton has not only drawn on Johnson for inspiration, but he has covered his ...

Sessions for Robert J. [CD & DVD]

Sessions for Robert J. [CD & DVD] (2004) more music like this

by Eric Clapton

It appears that Eric Clapton had more Robert Johnson in his blood than he thought -- or perhaps it was planned this way. This DVD/CD set (and really, it's not the other way around despite the packaging), showcases Clapton mining the Robert Johnson vein ever more deeply in no less than four different settings. The DVD features 19 acoustic and ...

Best of Both Worlds: The Robert Palmer Anthology (1974-2001)

Best of Both Worlds: The Robert Palmer Anthology (1974-2001) (2002) more music like this

by Robert Palmer

There are usually thought to be two phases to Robert Palmer's career: an earlier one running from 1974 to 1983, when he explored New Orleans second-line funk and reggae, backed by members of Little Feat and the Meters and turned out a series of critically acclaimed, modestly successful recordings, and a later one, from 1985 on, when he rode his ...

King of the Delta Blues Singers [Bonus Track]

King of the Delta Blues Singers [Bonus Track] (1966) more music like this

by Robert Johnson

Reading about the power inherent in Robert Johnson's music is one thing, but actually experiencing it is another matter entirely. The official 1998 edition of the original 1961 album was certainly worth the wait, remastered off the best quality original 78s available, of far superior quality to any of the source materials used on even the 1991 ...

At the Crossroads: The Blues of Robert Johnson

At the Crossroads: The Blues of Robert Johnson (2003) more music like this

by John Hammond, Jr.

If Robert Johnson could look down from heaven or up from hell, he'd likely find it very interesting that John Hammond, Jr. had covered his songs. Here is a white guy, after all, who sounds like a black blues singer and chooses -- of his own free will -- to frequently return to the repertoire of an obscure black guitarist/singer from the 1930s. At ...

The Last of the Great Blues Singers

The Last of the Great Blues Singers (2002) more music like this

by Robert Johnson

Although there are dozens of collections like this on the market, there is really no reason to get anything other than the double-disc Complete Recordings on Columbia. It has the best sound, the best annotation, and everything is there. Steve Leggett, All Music Guide

Me & the Devil

Me & the Devil (2001) more music like this

by Peter Green & Robert Johnson

While it's no secret that guitar king Peter Green is obsessed with Robert Johnson, having done two previous recordings of his music, this box is in essence something else. There are three CDs included here, one of which is Hot Foot Powder, the first album by the Peter Green Splinter Group, which included guest performances from the likes of Otis ...

The Best of John Hammond

The Best of John Hammond (1989) more music like this

by John Hammond

Vanguard's The Best of John Hammond is an excellent collection that features 22 highlights from Hammond's early albums. Balancing acoustic and electric material, the set includes "My Babe," "Milk Cow Calf's Blues," "Big Boss Man," "See That My Grave Is Kept Clean," "Stones in My Passway," "Key to the Highway" and "Who Do You Love," among others. ...

Hellhound on My Trail: Songs of Robert Johnson (2001) more music like this

by Various Artists

Not the first compilation of bluesmen (and one woman) interpreting the limited but radically influential work of Robert Johnson, and almost certainly not the last, this 2001 entry is one of the more substantial efforts in the lineage. Instead of refashioning these classics in unique arrangements, the compilers have stripped the artists and songs ...

Hot Foot Powder is Peter Green's second album made up entirely of covers of the music by the legendary Delta bluesman Robert Johnson. In fact, with this album and its predecessor, The Robert Johnson Songbook, Green has recorded every song that Robert Johnson is known to have composed and recorded.

Blues Biography (2008) more music like this

by Robert Johnson

Robert Johnson may not have been as innovative in the country blues field as many people think, but as one of the last of the great Delta players to record, he brought a late-era refinement to his material, and with striking songs like "Stones in My Passway," "Hellhound on My Trail," and the assured, brilliant "Love in Vain," he certainly deserves ...

Crossrads Blues [Past Perfect] (2000) more music like this

by Robert Johnson

Another budget-priced quickie that serves as a reminder that Johnson recorded some of the most important sides in the history of the blues. Interested listeners should invest in Columbia's seminal double-disc Complete Recordings instead. Brian Beatty, All Music Guide

Complete Collection (1998) more music like this

by Robert Johnson

Robert Johnson's recordings were made in the 1930s, but they did not become widely known until the 1960s, and did not achieve mass popularity until the 1990s, with the release of Columbia/Legacy's box set The Complete Recordings. Due to the age of the recordings, however, they are in the public domain in Europe, so any record label can simply copy ...

A Proper Introduction to Robert Johnson: Cross Road Blues (2004) more music like this

by Robert Johnson

This single-disc, 29-track collection of Robert Johnson's blues is yet another in the countless dozens that have already been issued. While it adds nothing new -- simply because there is nothing new to add -- the package is attractive, the price is right, and the sound is as good as the Sony CDs. The other plus for a novice would be that there are ...
