Tommy Johnson (1896-1956) from Crystal Springs, Mississippi, was one of that state's greatest blues singer/guitarists, an associate of Charley Patton, WIllie Brown, Ishman Bracey, Charlie McCoy, The Mississippi Sheiks, and many others.
David Evans began researching Johnson's lie and music in 1964 and interviewed, recorded and observed the performances of over a dozen musicians who knew and learned from Johnson. In this lesson Evans explains the guitar style of Tommy Johnson, with its relatively simple fingering positions but complex rhythms, interpreting the songs as he learned them from Johnson's disciples.
