..."Crossroads" from Robert Johnson...

Johnson's version is "Cross Road Blues." Cream and others have covered it as "Crossroads."

Then there's "Crossroads" from Robert Johnson, but honestly I don't know what that one was about...

I think there's an sequel somewhere for aspiring developers, but this seems to work for blues guitar:

"'If you want to make a contract with the devil...Take a black cat bone and a guitar and go to a lonely fork in the roads at midnight. Sit down there and play your best piece, thinking of and wishing for the devil all the while. By and by you will hear music, dim at first but growing louder and louder as the music approaches nearer. .After a time you feel something tugging at your instrument...Let the devil take it and keep thumping along with your fingers as if you still had a guitar in your hands. Then the devil will hand you his instrument to play and will accompany you on yours. After doing this for a time he will seize your fingers and trim the nails until they bleed, finally taking his guitar back and returning your own. Keep on playing; do not look around. His music will become fainter and fainter as he moves away...You will be able to play any piece you desire on the guitar and you can do anything , you want to in the world, but you have sold your eternal soul to the devil and are his in the world to come.'"
