Singer/Guitarist Brownie McGhee and his life long musical partner, blind harp-man, Sonny Terry are best known as champions of the Piedmont-style blues pioneered by artists such as Blind Blake, Blind Willie McTell and Blind Boy Fuller. In the 1960s, they became icons of the folk-blues revival. The recordings presented here showcase a different chapter of the story...
