5 out of 5 stars Outstanding Documentary   July 30, 2008
G. Ivanson
While this may not be for everyone, it is an outstanding look at the legend of Robert Johnson who himself was a blues legend. It is a search through the Southeastern US for the real truth about him and includes interview footage of people who knew him well. Fascinating material if you love the Blues.

This is one of the best documentaries on Robert Johnson ever made. John Hammond Jr. also performs some of Johnson's songs which is an added treat. Very informative and as factual as can be expected, considering that we know so little about many of the details of Johnson's life. I would highly recommend this documentary for any serious Robert Johnson fan.

This video was great, if you are a fan of blues music and of history and especially of Robert Johnson who "sold his soul to the devil" you will love it. It is well worth the money.

This documentary would have been much better, and shorter without the film maker inserting himself into the film with his singing and playing guitar. I like Robert Johnson, but the documentary maker is just not talented in those fields.
