I went down to the crossroads, tried to flag a ride.
Nobody seemed to know me, everybody passed me by .. "

lyrics by Eric Clapton via Robert Johnson.

hurray for Robert Johnson ... and yeah Clapton is pretty awesome too ;P

The sky looks so... perfect. It's gorgeous. The composition is also nice, go the two thirds rule.

the myth goes that robert johnson was fairly ordinary musician .. until he sold his soul to the devil at the crossroads one moonlit night, in return for an unmatched ability to play the blues and to write those twentynine songs that are the basis, now, for any blues artist worth listening to ..

but you probably already knew that ..
