People who appreciate Good Music , Especially when it's from the Heart ❤ is the Blues . True Legends , can't get enough of this type of music . Love it .
I had the great pleasure of visiting Brownie at that very house in Oakland in 1992. What a wonderful man, intelligent and wise and very generous with tow blues fans from Australia. great great memories and one of the really underated legends of the blues. Really should be up there with Muddy, Wolf and Robert Johnson. We just had our National Blues Day today in Australia and Brownie had such a great influence on blues music in this country.
I saw brownie and sonny in seattle 1979, bob marley 1979, muddie waters 15 times in chicago, those were the days great music everywhere. These blues guys were super talented despite a hard life
Me and my brother travelled with Brownee and Sonny around in the "70 in the Netherlands and Denmark and it as sometimes a hard road to travel for Sonny was blind and Brownee had polio in his younger days and could hardly walk sometimes and often they just won't talk alone with music making we got signatures on our hands and shoes so walk on means for us more than most folks thanks and it was so sad for famous men like them to see them play in gigs somewhere between programs we just shame
Gus hmmm I guess your mother never taught you, "if you can't say anything nice about somebody, keep your mouth shut and keep it to yourself". If she did, take this as reminder; if she didn't, take this s a lesson in kindness.

Even in retirement, Brownie can still bring the house down because he's just that good. There will never be a Brownie McGhee ever again. EVER.

Bert and Brownie...............i never expected such a treat.
thanks for posting :D
I am so envious. I'm only 36 and I never got this opportunity you did and I love Sonny and Brownie.
thank you so very much for uploading this!
true blues legend
Rare footage indeed, Bert Jansch playing with Brownie
all the best blues artists talk about improvisation and playing the way they feel instead of structure, keys, chords, timing etc.
Brother, I'm 36 and now you know how I feel. Damn we were born in the wrong time period.
No, he died -96. Rest in peace, master.
Goddamn, see? He was a star in England before he even got there! "I've never been appreciated in America"
Can't get any justice and recognition in the USA
"i am the blues" indeed! a true legend...i almost like his stuff without sonny terry better...almost.
hmm didnt brownie have some messed up teeth? haha this video rules
