Blind harp wizard Sonny Terry and Brownie McGhee, a spectacular guitar picker, had a 35-year-long partnership that helped to define folk-blues. Their Piedmont style has a very different feel to Delta blues, it’s lighter than the rough edged playing from Mississippi, and its effect on modern music has a very different genesis to the route through Chicago that gave us blues-rock. This quintessential 2-CD release includes three of their finest albums as a duo, recorded during their most inspired years: the masterwork Brownie McGhee & Sonny Terry Sing (1958), and the also splendid Get On Board (1952), both originally released by the Folkways label, plus the long unavailable and formidable live recording in San Francisco, At Sugar Hill (1962). Sometimes you’ll find them funny; at other times, they seem prophetic, chilling, or moving. These three albums have been remastered and packaged together in this special collector's edition, which also includes 9 bonus tracks. This is Piedmont blues at its best.
