About this product

Product Information

Robert "Mack" McCormick's magnum opus, Biography of a Phantom, follows his relentless quest to unearth the life of blues musician Robert Johnson. With just 29 songs to his name and only 27 years spent on Earth, Johnson became a blues icon who changed American music forever. When global audiences discovered the genius of his music in the 1960s, details of his life were elusive, giving rise to legends that he made a deal with the devil to achieve success. Beginning in 1969, McCormick spent years traveling the backroads of Mississippi to find family and friends who knew Johnson. He chronicled the journey in Biography of a Phantom, but never published it, leading many blues historians to assume his findings on Johnson's life would never see the light of day. McCormick's work is bookended with an editor's preface and afterword from Smithsonian curator John W. Troutman, who provides additional context on McCormick's efforts and complex legacy.
