On this day (Oct 19) in 1988 blues singer Son House passed away...In an interview in 1965 Son said he met Robert Johnson who played terribly. Son said he met Robert 6 mos. later and his playng was fantastic [ in actuality Son probably didnt meet Robert again for at least 18-24 mos.]. When the interview was reprinted the following year the magazine added the statement which it said was made by Son House that Robert had sold his soul to the Devil. Son NEVER made that statement and the statement in the reprinted interview was probably the start of the story that Robert Johnson had sold his soul [ Robert NEVER claimed he had sold his soul according to friends and if he had he wouldve been laughed at] https://youtube/watch?v=NdgrQoZHnNY
