O tym produkcie
Product Information
Robert Johnson is the subject of the most famous myth about the blues: he allegedly sold his soul at the crossroads in exchange for his incredible talent, and this deal led to his death at age 27. But the actual story of his life remains unknown save for a few inaccurate anecdotes. Up Jumped the Devil is the result of over 50 years of research. Gayle Dean Wardlow has been interviewing people who knew Robert Johnson since the early 1960s, and he was the person who discovered Johnson's death certificate in 1967. Bruce Conforth began his study of Johnson's life and music in 1970 and made it his mission to fill in what was still unknown about him. In this definitive biography, the two authors relied on every interview, resource and document, most of it material no one has seen before. As a result, this book not only destroys every myth that ever surrounded Johnson, but also tells a human story of a real person. It is the first book about Johnson that documents his years in Memphis, details his trip to New York, uncovers where and when his wife Virginia died and the impact this had on him, fully portrays the other women Johnson was involved with, and tells exactly how and why he died and who gave him the poison that killed him. Up Jumped the Devil will astonish blues fans who thought they knew something about Johnson.

Reviews
"This will be a must for those interested in vernacular music history and one of the blues' greatest artists." --Ron Weinstock from In a Blue Mood blog "The essential document for anyone interested in the devil's music which [Johnson] will always embody." --Kris Needs in MOJO, "Finally an in-depth biography of one of the greatest blues musicians ever. The clearing up of the myths and mysteries is a relief. The work of the authors is meticulous. They detail Robert Johnson's journey with facts, creating a full view of his life and times, his friends and influences, so the reader has a comprehensive understanding of how he came to be the greatest of the Delta bluesmen. I am blown away!" -- John Hammond, Jr., "blues historians Conforth and Wardlow provide a sober, well-researched and -documented account of the life and times of the Delta-born Robert Johnson." -- Booklist, "As the grandson of the iconic blues singer Robert Johnson, I'm honored that the truth is finally being revealed. . . . Up Jumped the Devil contains the real story of his life and does away with all the myths." --Steven Johnson, vice president, Robert Johnson Blues Foundation "an important and revealing new biography." --Barry Mazor, Chapter 16, "Some people will tell you that blues legend Robert Johnson lived under a curse, but it's actually research into Johnson's life that's been bedeviled. Finally the curse has been lifted. Bruce Conforth and Gayle Dean Wardlow . . . . are now sharing their hard-won insights into the most mysterious man in the annals of American music. If you want the straight story on Robert Johnson, this is where you start." --Ted Gioia, author of Delta Blues and The History of Jazz, "Finally an in-depth biography of one of the greatest blues musicians ever. The clearing up of the myths and mysteries is a relief. The work of the authors is meticulous. They detail Robert Johnson's journey with facts, creating a full view of his life and times, his friends and influences, so the reader has a comprehensive understanding of how he came to be the greatest of the Delta bluesmen. I am blown away!" --John Hammond, Jr., eight-time Blues Music Award winner, Grammy winner, and member of the Blues Hall of Fame, "Some people will tell you that blues legend Robert Johnson lived under a curse, but it's actually research into Johnson's life that's been bedeviled. Three of my friends died before publishing their books on him, and for a long time I've feared we might never get a reliable account of this artist's life and times. Finally the curse has been lifted. Bruce Conforth and Gayle Dean Wardlow started researching Robert Johnson and the Delta blues tradition more than a half-century ago, and they are now sharing their hard-won insights into the most mysterious man in the annals of American music. If you want the straight story on Robert Johnson, this is where you start." -- Ted Gioia, author of Delta Blues and The History of Jazz, "This is the book the blues world has been waiting for. Authored by two uniquely qualified scholars following years of extensive interviews and exhaustive research, the result is fascinating, important, and factual, without agenda or embellished narrative. . . . It is in my view a far more moving account than many others that have been obscured by so much fantasy. It's a can't-put-it-down kind of book--an exciting, great read." --Rory Block, celebrated acoustic blues guitarist/singer and five-time Blues Music Award winner, "As the grandson of the iconic blues singer Robert Johnson, I'm honored that the truth is finally being revealed. . . . Up Jumped the Devil contains the real story of his life and does away with all the myths." --Steven Johnson, vice president, Robert Johnson Blues Foundation, "A compelling narrative of the life of Robert Johnson, succinct and poignant, revealing the immensity of his blues and the mysteries of the man, debunking myths that have overshadowed the truth while illuminating the memories and first-person accounts diligently collected by the authors over more than five decades." --Alan Govenar, author of Texas Blues, Lightnin' Hopkins, and Stompin' at the Savoy, " Up Jumped the Devil is a tremendously important work. It not only finally reveals everything we wanted to know about Robert Johnson, but will rewrite the history of the blues." --Lawrence Cohn, Grammy-winning producer of Robert Johnson: The Complete Recordings and author of Nothing But the Blues "This in-depth portrait of Johnson's life and times will be mighty hard to improve upon." -- Kirkus Reviews, "Conforth and Wardlow have done amazing research, turning up a wealth of new details and clearing up mysteries I never imagined could be solved. This is the definitive Robert Johnson biography, and no one interested in his life, his legend, or his music can afford to miss it. I read it in one sitting, and will reread it gratefully in the future." --Elijah Wald, author of Escaping the Delta: Robert Johnson and the Invention of the Blues, "It's the most comprehensive biography yet of this fascinating figure." --Acoustic Guitar Magazine "Robert Leroy Johnson's legend needs this book." -- Goldmine Magazine, " Up Jumped the Devil is a tremendously important work. It not only finally reveals everything we wanted to know about Robert Johnson, but will rewrite the history of the blues." --Lawrence Cohn, Grammy-winning producer of Robert Johnson: The Complete Recordings and author of Nothing But the Blues, "It's the most comprehensive biography yet of this fascinating figure." -- Acoustic Guitar Magazine "Robert Leroy Johnson's legend needs this book." -- Goldmine Magazine, "This will be a must for those interested in vernacular music history and one of the blues' greatest artists." --Ron Weinstock from In a Blue Mood blog, "It is really incredible that after all these years celebrating the work of Robert Johnson, new information still keeps emerging. I would recommend this book to anyone interested in this man's haunting legacy." --John Mayall, OBE, legendary blues musician and member, Blues Hall of Fame, "As the grandson of the iconic blues singer Robert Johnson, I'm honored that the truth is finally being revealed. . . . Up Jumped the Devil contains the real story of his life and does away with all the myths." --Steven Johnson, vice president, Robert Johnson Blues Foundation "[A]n important and revealing new biography." --Barry Mazor, Chapter 16, "It is really incredible that after all these years celebrating the work of Robert Johnson, new information still keeps emerging. I would recommend this book to anyone interested in this man's haunting legacy." --John Mayall, OBE, legendary blues musician and member, Blues Hall of Fame " Up Jumped the Devil gives us Robert Johnson the man, as opposed to the myth that developed. As such it is required reading for any blues fan, and indeed, for any serious music fan." -- Down at the Crossroads, "As the grandson of the iconic blues singer Robert Johnson, I'm honored that the truth is finally being revealed. . . . Up Jumped the Devil contains the real story of his life and does away with all the myths." --Steven Johnson, vice president, Robert Johnson Blues Foundation "an important and revealing new biography." -- Chapter16, "Conforth and Wardlow have done amazing research, turning up a wealth of new details and clearing up mysteries I never imagined could be solved.
