Jeffery: Well, they were made from the same wood that the guitars were made from. I said, “do you have any scraps left?” and in fact there were three very small pieces of wood left, and so I sent them out to a fabulous pick maker out in California, and he was able to get a hundred picks out of that wood.

Gospel/blues singer and musician Blind Willie Johnson was born--as far as is known, since not much information is available about his early life--in 1902 in Marlin, TX. Supposedly, he was blinded when he was about three years old when his stepmother threw lye at his father during an argument, missed and it hit Willie in the face. He earned a living later on by singing on street corners. In 1927 he became a Baptist preacher, married and moved to Dallas, TX, where he eventually recorded a gospel album for Columbia Records. Many of the cuts on that album later became classics in the gospel genre. He stopped recording in 1930, but continued to perform up until the 1940s.

In 1947 he died in Beaumont, TX. Reportedly, the house he was living in burned down, and after spending the night sleeping in its remains, he caught pneumonia and died soon afterwards.

Blind Willie Johnson’s legacy rests on his pioneering gospel-blues slide guitar and haunting, gravelly vocals. Leaving behind only 29 recorded songs from 1927 to 1930, he profoundly influenced generations of musicians like Eric Clapton and Jimmy Page. His masterpiece, "Dark Was the Night, Cold Was the Ground," famously travels deep into space aboard NASA's Voyager Golden Record
