Though only 27-years-young and relatively unknown at the time of his tragic death in 1938, Robert Johnson''s enduring recordings have solidified his status as a progenitor of the Delta Blues style. And yet, while his music has retained the steadfast devotion of modern listeners, much remains unknown about the man who penned and played these timeless tunes.
Few people alive today actually remember what Johnson was really like, and those who do have largely upheld their silence-until now.In Brother Robert, nonagenarian Annye Anderson sheds new light on a real-life figure largely obscured by his own legend: her kind and incredibly talented stepbrother, Robert Johnson.
This book chronicles Johnson''s unconventional path to stardom-from the harrowing story behind his illegitimate birth, to his first strum of the guitar on Anderson''s father''s knee, to the genre-defining recordings that would one day secure his legacy. Along the way, readers are gifted not only with Anderson''s personal anecdotes, but with colorful recollections passed down to Anderson by members of their family-the people who knew Johnson best.
Readers also learn about the contours of his working life in Memphis, never-before-disclosed details about his romantic history, and all of Johnson''s favorite things, from foods and entertainers to brands of tobacco and pomade. Together, these stories don''t just bring the mythologized Johnson back down to earth; they preserve both his memory and his integrity.For decades, Anderson and her family have ignored the tall tales of Johnson ''selling his soul to the devil'' and the speculative to fictionalized accounts of his life that passed for biography.
Brother Robert is here to set the record straight. Featuring a foreword by Elijah Wald and a Q&A with Anderson, Lauterbach, Wald, and Peter Guralnick, this book paints a vivid portrait of an elusive figure who forever changed the musical landscape as we know it.
