Hardly a guitarist alive is not indebted in some way to Robert Johnson, the most important and influential Delta blues guitarist in history. Three eclectic talents will each illuminate a different facet of Johnson's legacy: guitarist John Renbourn, who weds the blues to his native British folk traditions, singer-songwriter Toshi Reagon, harnesses Johnson's visionary fervor and updates it for today; and guitarist Gary Lucas, who extends Johnson's ideas via his own decidedly post-modern avant-garde take on jazz, the blues, rock and folk styles.
