Blues musician Tommy Johnson’s only two recording sessions were in 1928 and 1930. The recordings, which include “Maggie Campbell Blues,” “Big Road Blues,” “Cool Drink of Water Blues,” and “Canned Heat Blues,” showcase his yodeling falsetto voice and simple but active guitar playing. Many of the songs became blues standards and were covered by later musicians such as Howlin’ Wolf.
