Discografia di Robert Johnson, musicista blues.

Registrazioni

Il Songbook (trad. it. "canzoniere") di Robert Johnson è costituito complessivamente da 29 composizioni conosciute[1]; queste furono incise per conto della American Record Corporation con la produzione del solo Don Law[1]. Alcune ricerche attendibili fanno ipotizzare che il cantautore afroamericano fu pagato circa 300 dollari in tutto per le sue performance[1], senza ottenere diritti d'autore sulle eventuali royalty future[1].

Tutte le registrazioni, apparse nelle varie raccolte uscite attraverso gli anni a nome del bluesman texano, sono ricavate dalle seguenti session, divise convenzionalmente da studiosi e appassionati in due gruppi distinti[1], a seconda del luogo in cui furono effettuate.
