Sonny Terry & Brownie McGhee - Hootin' the Blues

[@albertangeloro5832]

was a kid in the 50s and saw a rare appearance that i will never forget @ small space at #1 Sheridan Square in the West Village in NYC. the lights went down and Brownie entered playing guitar & Sonny held on to him while playing his harmonica. then they sang "Custard Pie" a great double entendre song.

"Two wrongs make a right. Now listen to me. Two wrongs make a right provided that we make the wrongs at the same time. And we play this in life. If he played the wrong chord, I play the wrong chord, it's got to be right." -Brownie McGhee

I was taught when creating visual art that if it looks right then it is right. Same applies to music. If it sounds right then it is right.

[@paulkersey1007]

​@@jurassicchester6956Sonny Terry and brownie McGhee would agree with you 100%

Sonny & Brownie, what a combination. I can't help but smile when I listen to this Blues Jam.

[@bloggalot4718]

Saw these two guys play this number live in the U.K. in the seventies, magical stuff.

[@lat1419]

They did a "retirement " tour in the UK in the 1969-ish, then another in 1974-ish! Saw them both times. Actually met them in 69, had a few drinks after the show. Lovely guys.

I thought that was ultra-smooth T Bone Walker.

This seems to be from a longer special. Is the rest of it preserved?
