Catching a special on the boob tube -Eric Clapton / Robert Johnson. Mesmerizing stuff thru the bedroom HT set up. Marantz Sr780 5.1 with four of the smaller Advents re capped and re foamed by yours truly.
Eric expaining just how hard it is to do Robert's tunes is educational. People talk about how Hendrix is so hard to reproduce as at times you'ld swear that it must have been overdubbed. Robert Johnson took it to the next level in that one guy is sitting there with an old acoustic and you can hear three people playin' at times and a fourth singing. It's no wonder that the story of Robert trading his soul to the devil down at the crossroads for the ability to be the best guitar player ever still resonates to this day.
