<\/a>
\nFirst off a little background my friends on the legendary Blues man\u00a0 Robert Johnson………
\n<\/object>
\nIt has always been said down through the years that Robert Johnson had made a deal with the Devil himself,or at least that was what folklore had recorded…..because of his incredible guitar playing style.
\nFolklore is the stuff legends are made of,however folklore is not always what really happened.
\n<\/object><\/p>\n

Almost anyone who follows music knows of which legend I am speaking of here,and I would expect all those who follow the blues would have to know it when it pertains to the legend Robert Johnson who sadly lived only 27 years on this earth..
\nWho was Ike Zimmerman…………………see the following two video as told by his daughter and his Grand son my friends………………………
\n<\/object><\/p>\n

<\/object>
\nThe following video’s in this blog are for your consideration and proof positive that the Devil that Johnson made the deal with in fact did have a earthy name…and that name was Ike Zimmerman. Oh well so much for Folklore……………..:)<\/p>\n

Pointing right at Zimmerman himself as the Devil incarnate……below my friends.
\nBE SURE TO TURN UP YOUR AUDIO ON THE FOLLOWING VIDEO OR ELSE YOU WILL NOT HEAR VERY MUCH FRIENDS,AND THEN BE SURE TO TURN IT DOWN AGAIN OR YOU’LL HEAR TOO MUCH….LOL<\/p>\n

<\/object><\/p>\n

The following recording of Robert Johnson has been slowed down my friends and also suggests that the original recording was recorded by mistake at a higher speed…..
\n<\/object><\/p>\n

Frankly I would have to agree as the recording sounds much better at this lower speed…….:)<\/p>\n

I find it all so incredibly unfortunate that Ike Zimmerman never achieved the
\nlevel of notoriety\u00a0 that he should have gained in being the Devil per-se
\nthat the great Robert Johnson really made a deal with…..
\nIf of course one could consider Ike Zimmerman a Devil at all for helping Robert Johnson play so incredibly at all…………………..
\nSo little of Robert Johnson’s life was recorded that often times people actually struggle to find ways of proving his life it seems,as is noted in the following video …..???
\n<\/object><\/p>\n

Well we do know that he did indeed live here my friends,but sadly for so few and brief years…..<\/p>\n

This blog is dedicated to the memory of perhaps the two greatest blues men who ever lived….
\nIKE ZIMMERMAN and ROBERT JOHNSON<\/p>\n

Thank you
