They were the beginning, but the genre evolved so much further past those scratchy, archaic recordings.
Well maybe I enjoy the bare bones production and delivery of Johnson's work and others from the early stages.
Not everyone gets damp over gut-busting electric guitar solos. I like the songwriting of a lot of earlier blues musicians.

To each his own. I appreciate the old stuff for the innovation and the history of it, but it is hard for me to say it is the greatest too. SRV was light years ahead of Robert Johnson, for example. But what makes Johnson great is that he paved the way for SRV and many others and indefinitely appreciate that.
