Seriously,

I want to do what Robert Johnson and Blind Lemon Jefferson did, where is this crossroads where I can meet the devil and barter with him for an outstanding musical talent? I'm ready and willing to sign this deal.
 
Dammit boy that dont happen these days...these days, we sell our soul to the record companies....and like the deal that Robert made with the devil, we are not allowed to enjoy the benefits.....
 
Hey, Royston:

CHANGE YOUR MIND.

Please, for god's sake (literally)!

-K.

Actually, we are allowed to enjoy them, but the taxes are prohibitively expensive, it's not worth it anymore!!!!!!!!!!

:D :D

And Royston, I thought you were a metal-head??? The devil only signs contracts with Blues Men...........

:)

Bruce
 
Metal Head?

My influences are The Beatles, The Zombies, Jeff Buckley, Tim Buckley, Elliott Smith, David Bowie, Marc Bolan, The Smiths, The Cocteau Twins, Stone Roses, Duran Duran, Small Faces etc. Some great metal bands there...not!

Do I give the impression of being a metal head? I hope not, I stopped listening to heavy metal when I was 19.
 
Oh... ok... but I didn't see any Blues artists there in your lists of influences! ;)

:D
 
score,

woo hoo Vai, Satriani, and Petrucci, my 3 favorite guitarists are touring, hell yea. Uhm, hey dudes, any way I can find a recording camp or school or somethin to do during the summer?? I would definitely be happy, cause I have written neat stuff, I really need to learn to record it nicely. I use Cubase5, N-track, protools.
 
Bluebear,

Are you telling me the devil only trades with bluesmen only? But I love John Mayall, The Yardbirds, BB King, Buddy Guy, Muddy Waters, Cream etc.

Yup! That's exactly what I'm saying! But since those are among your influences, I guess you qualify too - I'll send Beelzebub down for ya!! :D

don't sell your soul man!!!
What do you plan on selling it for anyway...
 
johnson

Check out www.deltahaze.com

I made the website for the company that owns johnson's music. Currently it's down from ISP problems but the owner is pretty much the authority on johnson.

It explains the crossroads pretty well. I can't remember the exact location, but it is pretty easy to find out where it is believed to be. It's a major interstate now.
 
You have to be a black bluesman so if ya aint black forget it. Thats one of the reason Clapton sings about heaven.
 
I was hoping to exchange or at least "lease" my soul to "Scratch" for a few years in place of the voice of a male rock n roll angel.
