Answer:

atton’s influence on many of the other artists that we have come to hold in such high esteem is another reason for his importance. Willie Brown, Son House, Howlin’ Wolf, Tommy Johnson, Robert Johnson, Muddy Waters, Bukka White, Big Joe Williams, Pop Staples and David ‘HoneyBoy’ Edwards all came under Patton’s influence in some way.
