    There’s a wonderful compilation album/cd called The Roots of Robert Johnson. It’s all material that Johnson lifts the music from and writes his own lyrics to.
    One example would be Skip James 22-20 blues is where Johnson changes to be his own 32-20 blues. What’s awesome is his guitar adaptations of piano pieces

    Man that was a really great lesson, thanks so much. I would say Robert learned most of his chord structures from his teacher Ike Zimmerman s he taught him how to play in the grave yard at night but there was no one to bother them as the haints listened to them. in the grave yard. Probably where the original story started from them practicing at night for a year there.

    • @MrSwitchblade327
      @MrSwitchblade327 2 роки тому +1

      Bingo. Other big name artists have learned to play by picking in the graveyard in the middle of the night as well.. Even wrote songs dedicated to buried souls there. No place "quieter" than a graveyard at night and nobody to hear you mess up or sing off key as you learn. Nobody still in this plane anyway. If you listen hard enough the spirits may even give inspiration 😉. I'd say they enjoy the company and music.

      one theory is that he was rather successful with the girls and slept around a lot. The whole devil practitioner thing might have been a way of warding off jealous boyfriends and husbands who might fuck Johnson up
      or maybe just generally it gave him a fuck off I'm scary vibe in that dangerous world, he was quite skinny so he might've needed it. It's the same with the voodoo royalty, Marie Laveaux and Dr John (the first, not the piano player who took that name)
      I wonder if something similar to that is still possible on some level. Terry P used to call it headology, a witch is a witch because she wears a witch's hat, but a witch's hat is a witch's hat because its worn by a witch. By that, if you smart enough you never need any magic

    Blues got its start by african americans in the deep south of the United States around the end of the 19th century. It was W.C. Handy who took the regional style of blues and turned it into a new blues style in contemporary form as we all know it today therefore he is credited to be the Father of the Blues en.wikipedia.org/wiki/W._C._Handy
    Although Robert was not the father of the blues, his musical style influenced a new generation after him which many may have gotten that impression from him. Robert, however is credited in helping influence later generations and is recognized as the Master of Blues particularly of the Mississippi Delta blues style.

  • @seansunyoon

    1:51 - "Blue note"can be many things, but typically it refers to lowered third: more so than lowered 5th. This off-the-standard-pitch note is achieved by bending the minor third by a quarter tone, placing it right in between the minor third and major third. In the key of E (as was the key in this video) the blue note is G and a 1/4 or the note between G and G#. This can be viewed as one of telltale signs that many blues licks go back and forth minor and major. Just wanted to offer my two cents in busting the myth that the blue note is lowered 5th!
    Also two of the most important Robert Johnson techniques are completely missing from here. (1) His right-hand technique where he upstrokes three top strings and (2) his unorthodox beats or structure of intros.

      It's any flatted note really. The 3rd 5th and 7th usually. But to me it's mostly the 5th.

    the devils note (tri-tone) was never illegal and is found in many Catholic chants and many of those were commissioned by notable Bishops and even the pastor of Notre Dame Cathedral around the twelfth and thirteenth centuries

    The Devils note or Devils Triad, was coined back further in history. Composers like Vaugner wrote very dark sounding classical music with it.
    Robert Johnson was playing juke houses on the weekends and the men in the bar were partying too hard and were too hung over to make it to Church on Sunday.
    Their Wives still attended and the Preacher would say "Your husbands been out smoking and drinking all night listening to the devils music., And thats why they aint in Church today!"
    When in reality they were just too hung over to go to church.
    Plus Robert spent some time learning from a fellow blues player. They practiced late at night in a Graveyard.
    Combine that with him vanishing for a period of time to work on his craft and comming back a better player. You get the myth of the crossroads and selling his soul to the devil.
    Shit! there's a Doc on Netflix that explains it better than I can, I highly recommend it!

    wrong history lesson, the diminished 5th was the devil note, the augmented 4th was actually ok to use.

      +lautaro russo Those intervals are enharmonic equivalents.

    • @crohno
      @crohno 7 років тому +17

      yes and no, they are the same frequency, but different notes and textures within the scale, and the augmented 4th was never forbidden, the lydian mode was used quite a lot.
