The Gospel Blues of Blind Willie Johnson
« on: February 06, 2023, 05:22:20 AM »
An excerpt from my 2015 book Early Blues: The First Stars of Blues Guitar, this just-posted article celebrates the life and legacy of Blind Willie Johnson, the superlative slide guitarist and one of the most influential gospel artists of the 20th century. I've layered in lots of musical links.

Good stuff, Jas. Made me realize I haven't heard Willie in a while, time to go do some listening.
