Robert Petway

Little Is Known Of Robert Petway's Life Beyond The Sessions Recorded For Bluebird Records In 1941 And '42. Those Sides Include 'Catfish Blues', Which Muddy Adapted As 'Rollin Stone' A Few Years Later, And The High Quality Of Those Pressings Give Us The Authentic Sound Of Delta Blues Just Before It Came To The City And Turned Electric. Absolutely Nothing Is Known Of Petway After 1942, Only One Picture Ever Taken, Leading To Speculation That Robert Petway Is The Alter Ego Of Another Rough-Edged Delta Player Tommy McClennan, Himself Leaving A Powerful Legacy Of Raw-Boned Blues During A 27 Month Recording Career In Chicago. Both Musicians, Alter Egos Or Not Recorded Several Songs That Are A Seminal Part Of the Blues Canon
