The 75th Anniversary of Robert Johnson's 508 Park Sessions

Wednesday, June 20, 2012 at 4 a.m.

The 75th Anniversary of Robert Johnson's 508 Park Sessions

From the program of the celebration in honor of the 75th anniversary of the Robert Johnson recording session and Juneteenth, at The Stewpot and First Presbyterian Church:

On That Day: A theatrical spoken word and musical evocation of the world of Dallas on June 19 & 20, 1937 when Robert Johnson, the Crystal Springs Ramblers, and the Light Crust Doughboys recorded in a makeshift studio at 508 Park Avenue, Dallas.
Sums it up pretty right.
