Robert Leroy Johnson (8 mai 1911 - 16 août 1938) était un chanteur américain de blues, auteur-compositeur et musicien. Ses enregistrements de référence en 1936 et 1937 combinent une combinaison de chant, de compétences en guitare et de talents en composition de chansons qui ont influencé les générations futures de musiciens. La vie et la mort peu documentées de Johnson ont donné lieu à de nombreuses légendes. Celui qui est le plus étroitement lié à sa vie est qu'il a vendu son âme au diable à un carrefour local pour réussir sa musique. Il est maintenant reconnu en tant que maître du blues, en particulier en tant que progéniteur du style delta blues.
Johnson a été intronisé au Temple de la renommée du rock and roll lors de sa première cérémonie d'intronisation, en 1986, en tant qu'influence précoce du rock and roll. Il a reçu un Grammy Award à titre posthume en 1991 pour The Complete Recordings, un album de compilation de 1990. Son single "Cross Road Blues" a été intronisé au Grammy Hall of Fame en 1998 et a reçu un Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award en 2006 ...
