Uncovering the Originals - Robert Johnson, Eric Clapton, Rolling Stones

Original air date August 3, 2019 | Time 59:00

   

Sometimes a song is better known for a cover version instead of the original composer. We listen to the Rolling Stones covers of the American blues musician Robert Johnson (May 8, 1991 - August 16, 1938 at 27 yrs old). Eric Clapton also plays the entire catalog of Robert Johnson's music. These two strong influences in rock have bought the blues into the foundation of rock and roll.

“Eventually, all things merge into one, and a river runs through it. The river was cut by the world's great flood and runs over rocks from the basement of time. On some of the rocks are timeless raindrops. Under the rocks are the words, and some of the words are theirs. I am haunted by waters.” ― Norman Maclean, A River Runs Through it and Other Stories

“Have you also learned that secret from the river; that there is no such thing as time?" That the river is everywhere at the same time, at the source and at the mouth, at the waterfall, at the ferry, at the current, in the ocean and in the mountains, everywhere and that the present only exists for it, not the shadow of the past nor the shadow of the future.” ― Hermann Hesse, Siddhartha
