Tommy Johnson and the Rest of Robert Johnson. 67 MB zip file. Pre-war Delta bluesman Tommy Johnson made some of the rawest and most powerful music ever recorded. He emerged in the same period as Charley Patton and Son House and was just as vital. A talented guitarist who helped originate Delta blues vernacular, it was as a vocalist that he truly left his mark. Johnson sang like a man running from demons after midnight, channeling the torment and spirituality of the field holler into his songs. His tenure was short, yet he managed to influence a wide swath of blues musicians including Howlin Wolf, Robert Nighthawk, Floyd Jones, and Houston Stackhouse.
