Robert Lockwood Jr.

Sad news that I just saw, Robert Lockwood Jr. famed Blues guitarist died at 91. For those not into the Blues, Robert learned guitar from a boyfriend of his mother: Robert Johnson who inspired the legend of the "bluesman who sold his soul," Eric Clapton, Jimmy Page and on and on... That is not to say that's Robert Jr's only claim to fame. He was a blue master in his own right and influenced the course of blues and taught scores of other artists. Gonna go put on some cd's now...
