I was born in 1911, I am a blues man that is more famous dead than I am alive. I was made famous by the non blues musicians who have recorded my music and even a movie was made about the "legend" of my life. The mystery of my death in 1938 still surrounds blues scholars but only I know what happened. Dead men tell no tales. I love these two part questions. 1. Who am I? 2. What was the name of the movie made about the "legend" that surrounded my life? Only answers posted on the blog will count and the first answer wins........good luck.

WE HAVE A WINNER
