Family at war over who owns copyright to only two known photographs of legendary bluesman Robert Johnson who 'sold his soul to the devil'
• Eric Clapton has called Johnson 'the most important blues singer that ever lived'
• He died penniless in Mississippi in 1938, but a collection of his recordings won a Grammy in 1990
• The decision now rests with the Mississippi Supreme Court who heard arguments from the two sides on Monday
• Family members and other associates have been locked in a legal dispute for 25 years over who owns the only two photos
