After a talent scout enticed Robert Johnson to Texas, he recorded his music between November 23 and 25, 1936, including “Terraplane Blues,” “Come On in My Kitchen,” “Kind Hearted Woman Blues,” “I Believe I’ll Dust My Broom,” and “Cross Road Blues.” Due to the perseverance of the San Antonio Blues Society and Robert Johnson Blues Society, a marker commemorating the Gunter Hotel as the site of Robert Johnson’s historic recording sessions was erected on November 23, 2001. He recorded only twenty-nine songs before perishing at 27 years old. It is long rumored Robert Johnson died of poisoning, by the hand of a jealous husband. Another consideration is a possible aneurysm caused by congenital syphilis and a love of drinking moonshine. Looking for his gravesite is just as mystifying as other aspects of his life and death: three different headstones are erected in separate cemeteries around Greenwood, Mississippi. If you can’t find his site, just play some of his recordings and think of how San Antonio preserved the sounds of Robert Johnson!
ROBERT JOHNSON EN SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS
Después de que un buscador de talentos atrajera a Robert Johnson a Texas, grabó su música entre el 23 y el 25 de noviembre de 1936, incluyendo “Terraplane Blues”, “Come On in My Kitchen”, “Kind Hearted Woman Blues”, “I Believe I’ll Dust Mi escoba” y “Cross Road Blues”. Debido a la perseverancia de la San Antonio Blues Society y la Robert Johnson Blues Society, el 23 de noviembre de 2001 se erigió un marcador que conmemora el Gunter Hotel como el sitio de las históricas sesiones de grabación de Robert Johnson. Grabó solo veintinueve canciones antes de perecer a los 27. años. Durante mucho tiempo se rumorea que Robert Johnson murió envenenado, a manos de un marido celoso. Otra consideración es un posible aneurisma causado por sífilis congénita y el gusto por beber alcohol ilegal. Buscar su tumba es tan desconcertante como otros aspectos de su vida y muerte: se erigieron tres lápidas diferentes en cementerios separados alrededor de Greenwood, Mississippi. Si no puede encontrar su sitio, simplemente reproduzca algunas de sus grabaciones y piense en cómo San Antonio preservó los sonidos de Robert Johnson.
