"When you love the music and the person behind the music, you want to know more about him. That's what this book is all about." --from the foreword by Dion DiMucci, Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee and author of Dion: The Wanderer Talks Truth "Magic and mystery meld with humility and history. Portrait of a Phantom is a tale told by a true acolyte and seeker of the source of the blues." --Patti Smith, Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee and author of the National Book Award winner Just Kids "A fascinating trip into the world of blues history . . . The details and anecdotes herein give a great perspective to 'the Phantom.'" --John Hammond, blues singer and musician "When it comes to the blues, Zeke knows." --Steve Earle, singer, songwriter, and author of I'll Never Get Out of This World Alive "Zeke . . . seems to understand the essence of music and the soul connection that intertwines this magnificently mystical, yet elusive art form." --Clarence Greenwood/Citizen Cope, musician While searching for vintage guitars on the internet, Zeke Schein came across what he believed was a photograph of one of the most influential blues musicians of all time. Schein, both a fan and historian of the Delta Blues, suspected that the image depicted the enigmatic Robert Johnson. His attempts to authenticate it inspired vitriolic debates among blues aficionados about its legitimacy. Schein's fascinating experiences documenting its history are entwined with his own journey of discovery and his unwavering belief in the truth of the image.
