According to the legend of the crossroads, to make a deal with the devil, you have to get Papa Legba (the gatekeeper) as your guide. Get yourself a black cat bone and a guitar and go down to the crossroads at midnight and start playing. Pretty soon you will start to hear music, soft at first and getting louder. When you feel something tug at your guitar just let him take it. Don't turn around and look at him or that old hellhound dog of his. That ole devil will give you his guitar and you will play together until your fingers start to bleed.That old dog will start to growl and moan cause he's got the blues. When the devil gives you your guitar back you will be able to play anything you want. That old dog ain't for sale but the sound of the delta blues are.
