Robert Leroy Johnson (May 8, 1911 – August 16, 1938) was an American blues musician and singer. His distinctive recordings from 1936-37 showcased a blend of singing, guitar skills, and songwriting talent that influenced future generations of musicians. Johnson's mysterious and impoverished life led to the creation of legends, including the Faust legend that he sold his soul for success. Despite limited commercial success during his lifetime, he is now celebrated as a master of blues music, particularly Mississippi Delta blues, and is recognized for his significant impact on rock musicians.
