Hoodoo, Voodoo, and Robert Johnson
from Lattes and Legends
Robert Johnson was a blues guitarist who had dreams and aspirations of being rich and famous. When he first started, his musical skills were downright dreadful, according to some. After a little traveling and some lessons, he became one of the greatest guitarists to ever live. Many think that there is no way that in such a short period of time he could accomplish this and that is why many think he sold his soul to the devil at a crossroads in the deep south. Was it hoodoo or voodoo? Did the hell hounds come to claim him? We may never know what truly happened the day that Robert Johnson died. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/lattes-and-legends/support Hosted on Acast.
