Whoa, his music scares the hell out of me. Its that real spinechilling stuff, especially Hell hound on my Trail. Really want to find one of his CDs.

the reason he sounds "old school" is because he was born in 1911 he was one of the first great blues players

Sorry to rebumb an old thread..

But seriously man, listen to some.  It's freaky as hell.  And yes Skip James is really good too, but I prefer Johnson's stuff

I got to keep moving, I got to keep moving
Blues falling down like hail, blues falling down like hail
Mmm, blues falling down like hail, blues falling down like hail
And the day keeps on remindin' me, there's a hellhound on my trail
Hellhound on my trail, hellhound on my trail
