"[This book] paints a lively portrait of the African American community in Memphis in the 1930s."-- Daily Hampshire Gazette, A Rolling Stone-Kirkus Best Music Book of 2020 Winner of the Audiofile Earphones Award Publishers Weekly , "Most Anticipated Books of Spring 2020" No Depression, "Best Music Books of 2020", "Anderson offers vivid, personal glimpses of her stepbrother ... providing a colorful picture .... [An] earnest and enlightening memoir."-- Publishers Weekly, "[ Brother Robert } book does much to pull the blues master out of the fog of myth." ( A Rolling Stone-Kirkus Best Music Book of 2020) -- Rolling Stone, "Although it's been more than 80 years since Anderson last saw Johnson,her memories are vivid and personal, as she recalls a well-loved older siblingwho entertained his family and community with his guitar and vast repertoire ofsongs. [...] Anderson's account debunks myths about Johnson: he had a lovingfamily; he was exposed to all kinds of popular music; he was not illiterate;and he did not go to the crossroads and sell his soul to the devil. ConsiderAnderson's heartfelt chronicle an earnest attempt to set the record straight."-- Booklist, "Mrs. Anderson summons up poignant memories of the young man she so admired... If Johnson has become an idealised figure, Anderson's book helps us to see him as a flesh-and-blood individual, an entertainer rather than some tortured mystic."-- The Times (UK), "A breathtaking look into the provenance of one of the 20th century'sgreat musical minds, the social warp and woof of Black Memphis in the 1920s and'30s, and, in spite of racial violence that continues to this day, thepersistence of family and the power of music."-- Memphis Flyer, "[This book reveals] "new details about everything from Johnson's birth to his romantichistory to his life at home with family - even his favourite foods and brandsof tobacco and pomade. The book also arrives with a new photograph of Johnson -just the third confirmed image in the world."-- CBC, "Cutting through the mythos that has long surrounded this iconic artist, this is an intriguing addition to the history of 20th-century blues."-- Library Journal, "Annye Anderson's lush, vivid memories from Robert Johnson's home base give the bluesman a personal dimension like never before. How he walked, the pomade in his hair, his protection of his guitar. The aura of mystery remains, but with Brother Robert , Johnson gains character and context, and becomes more of a person than we've ever known this specter to be."-- RobertGordon, author of Can't Be Satisfied: The Life and Times of Muddy Watersand It Came From Memphis, A Rolling Stone-Kirkus Best Music Book of 2020 Winner of the Audiofile Earphones Award Publishers Weekly , "Most Anticipated Books of Spring 2020" No Depression, "Best Music Books of 2020" Best Classic Bands, "Best Music Books of the Year" OnMilwaukee, "10 Great Books from 2020", "A remarkable book,one which so richly complements those that came before it documenting RobertJohnson's life and legacy."-- Under the Radar Magazine

Synopsis
A Rolling Stone-Kirkus Best Music Book of 2020 " Brother Robert } book does much to pull the blues master out of the fog of myth."-- Rolling Stone An intimate memoir by blues legend Robert Johnson's stepsister, including new details about his family, music, influences, tragic death, and musical afterlife Though Robert Johnson was only twenty-seven years young and relatively unknown at the time of his tragic death in 1938, his enduring recordings have solidified his status as a progenitor of the Delta blues style. And yet, while his music has retained the steadfast devotion of modern listeners, much remains unknown about the man who penned and played these timeless tunes. Few people alive today actually remember what Johnson was really like, and those who do have largely upheld their silence-until now. In Brother Robert , nonagenarian Annye C. Anderson sheds new light on a real-life figure largely obscured by his own legend: her kind and incredibly talented stepbrother, Robert Johnson. This book chronicles Johnson's unconventional path to stardom, from the harrowing story behind his illegitimate birth, to his first strum of the guitar on Anderson's father's knee, to the genre-defining recordings that would one day secure his legacy. Along the way, readers are gifted not only with Anderson's personal anecdotes, but with colorful recollections passed down to Anderson by members of their family-the people who knew Johnson best. Readers also learn about the contours of his working life in Memphis, never-before-disclosed details about his romantic history, and all of Johnson's favorite things, from foods and entertainers to brands of tobacco and pomade. Together, these stories don't just bring the mythologized Johnson back down to earth; they preserve both his memory and his integrity. For decades, Anderson and her family have ignored the tall tales of Johnson "selling his soul to the devil" and the speculative to fictionalized accounts of his life that passed for biography. Brother Robert is here to set the record straight. Featuring a foreword by Elijah Wald and a Q&A with Anderson, Wald, Preston Lauterbach, and Peter Guralnick, this book paints a vivid portrait of an elusive figure who forever changed the musical landscape as we know it., An intimate memoir by blues legend Robert Johnson's stepsister, including new details about his family, music, influences, tragic death, and musical afterlife Though only 27-years-young and relatively unknown at the time of his tragic death in 1938, Robert Johnson's enduring recordings have solidified his status as a progenitor of the Delta Blues style.
