Robert L Johnson, son of Charles Dodds, was born in Hazlehurst, Mississippi and raised by his stepfather Robert ‘Dusty’ Saunders Son House taught him to play guitar and, for some time, he worked with Son playing in juke joints, parties and also on streets for some tips Johnson died in an ambulance while he was being taken to hospital, as probably he was poisoned, although some people suggested he had been stabbed A personal view of thirteen Robert Johnson’s songs is the new proposal of Argentinian singer and guitar player now settled in Barcelona, Hernan Chino Senra As this year 2011 we commemorate Jonhson’s birth centenary, Chino wants to give his personal homage to the music of this great bluesman, doing a very special tribute, where the essence and respect for the music of this legendary artist is a fundamental part of his work This does not mean he limits himself to copy, as he gives to Johnson’s music a different personal stamp In short, an excellent work, that deserves to be listened with careful attention
