Free Music Review: Blind Willie Johnson,master of slide guitar
Hit: 5 Stars
Blind Willie Johnson, 1900 ? - 1949 ?According to blues guitarist Tom Shaw (1908-1977),who met Johnson at the end of the twenties,he was much older,probably born between 1880 and 1890.Blind Willie Johnson is a master of slide guitar, very reminiscent of the way Fred McDowell used to play.This wonderful Yazoo record includes many great tunes of sacred music by this extraordinary player and singer : "you're gonna need somebody on your bond","Jesus make up my dying bed","God moves on the water","I know his blood can make me whole","motherless children have a hard time" and the incredible "dark was the night,cold was the ground",maybe the strongest and strangest piece ever recorded.Played in pure F,this very emotional tune seems to have some strong african roots,and Johnson's slide work is absolutely out of this world.
Johnson may not be a blues musician,because he never recorded a blues,only sacred songs, but the stamp of the blues is everywhere in his music.He sure had a great influence on many blues guitar players,beginning with Mississippi Fred McDowell.
Blind Willie Johnson's music is as essential as Robert Johnson's,or Mississippi John Hurt's,or Son House's.I bought this record on LP many years ago, and it has allways been one of my favorites.You'll rarely hear a stronger music,and a more furious guitar playing.And the sound quality is very good,all the tunes beeing recorded between 1927 and 1930.An essential record in the history of Great Black Music .
