Brownie McGhee ‎• Brownie's Blues



Review by Thom Owens
Brownie's Blues was originally released by Bluesville Records in 1962. Supported by his longtime accompanist Sonny Terry, as well as second guitarist Benny Foster, Brownie turns in a nicely understated record that's distinguished by surprisingly harmonically complex and jazzy guitar work. Among the highlights are versions of "Killin' Floor," "Trouble in Mind" and "Every Day I Have the Blues," as well as the boogieing "Jump, Little Children" and "I Don't Know the Reason."

Reseña de Thom Owens
Brownie's Blues fue lanzado originalmente por Bluesville Records en 1962. Apoyado por su acompañante de muchos años Sonny Terry, así como por el segundo guitarrista Benny Foster, Brownie se convierte en un disco agradablemente subestimado que se distingue por un trabajo de guitarra sorprendentemente complejo y jazzy. Entre las más destacadas están las versiones de "Killin' Floor", "Trouble in Mind" y "Every Day I Have the Blues", así como el boogieing "Jump, Little Children" y "I Don't Know the Reason".
