Rolling Stone's 22nd greatest album of all time
The subject of many mysterious stories of soul-selling and devil-dealing, which is obviously complete nonsense. Quite simply, Johnson was a blues musician who initially wasn't very good and then, after a couple of years of intensive practice, he became quite good. His songs tended to have a dark, macabre theme to them, which led people to believe the hype of him selling his soul to the devil, a story which wasn't invented until after his death, and has grown arms and legs since.
Superb blues songs from a master of the Delta blues style, most notably Sweet Home Chicago, Come on in my Kitchen and Cross Road Blues.

I have been a big fan of cross-country, road-trip type novels ever since reading The Talisman, so I was excited to get my hands on this book. Fallow was some trip! The details of the incident that landed Mikey in jail are fed to the reader bit-by-bit, and the more you start to realize what happened, the harder it is to put this book down. Once I spotted the twist headed my way, I had to keep reading until I got to the end. I just had to know what exactly happened years ago, and how it would all end up in the present. This was a thrilling debut novel, and I’ll be watching for more from this author.

<i>NOTE: I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of the book.</i>
