Much more than an in-depth lesson on Delta blues, this video is a personal visit with a truly unique individual in the history of American music.

Foremost among these is the immortal Robert Johnson, whom he met in 1936. In an absolutely remarkable vignette, Honeyboy gives his first-person account on the death of the King of the Delta Blues. Surrounding this riveting moment of living history are detailed demonstrations and thrilling performances of solo country blues, slide guitar, boogie bass lines and lead guitar. Taken all together, this video is the original source for Delta blues guitar that cannot be obtained anywhere else! Includes a booklet containing key musical examples from the video. 65 minutes.
