[Harp-L] Robert Johnson - Crossroads Curse and the 27 Curse

["Bill Kumpe" <bkumpe@xxxxxxx>]

I know that we have a lot of very knowledgeable folks on the list that are
steeped in blues lore. If anyone would care to offer it, I would like to
hear some input on the alleged "Crossroads Blues curse" and the alleged "27
curse" associated with Robert Johnson's music.  Since this is not really a
harmonica discussion, please contact me offlist at Tulsaharps@xxxxxxxx  Out
of respect for the list rules, mandatory harp content for this message
follows, (a) Does anyone know of a harp player who was affected by these
alleged curses? (b) Does anyone on the list regularly perform the Crossroads
Blues?
