Blues Legend's Soul for Sale

Like most business owners, Satan occasionally has to take stock of his inventory and make room for newer models -- and with elections taking place in every nook and cranny of this fair land, he's certainly bought up plenty of souls in recent weeks. As such, the Man Downstairs looks to be unloading some of his older purchases -- like the soul of Robert Johnson, which Legend has it that the blues legend traded his eternal spirit to the devil down at the crossroads -- which, depending on your interpretation, could've be a dusty Mississippi intersection or a corner office in the Big Apple -- for everlasting fame, a deal that didn't end up working out all that well since he died in obscurity just a couple of years later. We're not sure what sort of deal Beelzebub will cut for this exchange, but since he now takes PayPal, perhaps the buyer could work out a package deal including John Bonham's liver and Jim Morrison's little black book as well.
