Legendary blues man Robert Johnson, who claimed to have sold his soul to the devil in order to play the guitar, lived a life full of mystery. Only two known pictures of him are known to exist, his music catalog contains less than 50 songs, and his death, an alleged poisoning in 1938, was such a mystery that 3 grave markers claim to rest above his remains.
However Johnson's birthplace has been confirmed by researchers and historians. He was born in 1911 in a modest home built by his step father in Hazlehurst, Mississippi.
Now 7 decades after his untimely death at the age of 27, the blues icon's home is being restored and will be turned into a museum commemorating his life, music and legacy.
You can listen to his most famous song "Crossroads" below:

Black Eyed Peas mistress Fergie is entering sex rehab to stop her urges to cheat on her husband - Transformers star Josh Duhamel.
The singer, who says she is bisexual, says she needs to control her desires.
"I've been very honest with him from the get-go," she said. "I think women are beautiful, I've had a lot of fun with women, and I'm not ashamed of it... But just because I enjoy women doesn't mean I'm allowed to have affairs in my relationship."
She claims she learned through talks with her therapists that cheating is wrong - even if it is with women (go figure huh?)
Fergie and Duhamel's marriage, which took place in January this year, has been rocked by allegations of Duhamel's extra marital affair with a stripper - a charge Duhamel denies.
