Johnson was born in Hazelurst, Mississipi in May and died 27 years later on 16 August Johnson was born illegitimately to a plantation worker called Noah Johnson and was sent to live with his stepfather Charles Dodds in Memphis when he as four years old.
Johnson learned the basics of guitar from a brother in Memphis before moving back to the Delta to live with his mother where he was far more interested in music than working the plantation. Robert married Virginia Travis at 16 in however Virginia died one year later during childbirth.
This was about the same time Johnson saw Son House play live for the first time. The veracity of the story of Robert Johnson meeting the devil at the crossroads is strengthened by the constant references to Satan in his music.
But while it's clear that rock stars are more likely to die young than, for example, their average fan of the same age, the 27 Club is really more "The 20's and 30's Club. But the members of the 27 Club get the most attention both because the term is marketable and because the deaths of those involved have sparked the most rumors.
Plane crashes, for example, have killed a surprisingly high number of talented artists Buddy Holly, Otis Redding, etc. Reports of Morrison's demise in a Paris bathtub have inspired four decades of rumours. Speculation on Cobain's death is endlessly fascinating. Reports of Redding's crash landing in a Wisconsin lake were equally tragic he'd just recorded " Sittin' On The Dock of the Bay" , but not nearly as mysterious. So, the club's mystique has only grown.

After canceling a slew of shows in June to sort herself out, Winehouse died the next month from alcohol poisoning. Those were the years that itinerant bluesman Robert Johnson recorded 29 songs for the American Record Corporation, which would become the totality of his life's work.
The Mississippi native's soulful vocals and lyrics, along with his masterful guitar skills, would later influence his reputation as King of the Delta Blues Singers , and he'd have immeasurable influence over subsequent generations of rock artists such as Bob Dylan , Eric Clapton , Robert Plant and the Rolling Stones. Johnson's musical talent was so otherworldly that it was said that he sold his soul to the Devil in exchange for it.
His biography is shrouded in mystery and became further mythologized after he was found dead on the side of a country road in Some believe he died of poisoning from a jealous wife's husband. The musicians' relationship was a cautionary tale, fueled by drugs and despair, and forever paralyzed by Cobain's suicide in We'll assume you're ok with this, but you can opt-out if you wish.
