Reviews of the book:

"Scott Ainslie has taken on the monumental task of transcribing all of Robert Johnson's recorded blues songs and succeeded with flying colors...this book (Robert Johnson/At The Crossroads, Hal Leonard Corporation, 1992) stands head and shoulders above any other collection of transcriptions."
[Brett Bonner, Living Blues Magazine ]

"Robert Johnson/At The Crossroads just arrived and I've devoured it. It's wonderful in every respect! I wish I had had it when i wrote 'Black Culture and Black Consciousness' , but I'm delighted to have it now."
[Dr Lawrence Levine, University of California-Berkeley ]

"... Painstaking detail, not only in the presentation of tablature and notation, but in the introductory biography and the deliberate introductory text and lyric transcriptions that accompany each song."
[Steve James, Acoustic Guitar Magazine ]
