It takes a lot of confidence to cover songs by iconic blues legend Robert Johnson, and for a woman to sing Johnson's tales of life love and loneliness then the singer must have supreme self-confidence - and Rory Block on her new release The Lady and Mr.Johnson is well up for the task.

Rory has been around for a long time and has more than earned enough respect to use her impressive slide guitar skills and soulful voice on these delta blues classics. This may turn out to be Block's most important release in her long career.

The Johnson family have given their complete support to Rory Block who is more than just a student of the master bluesman - she is the very essence of his musical legend.
