He had long since become a master of the Piedmont style, and he was joined here by his longtime partner Sonny Terry on harmonica, plus a second guitarist adding extra body to the sound.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhat makes this record special is the blend. McGhee's roots in jump blues sit right alongside his more traditional folk-blues side, so the set swings as easily as it settles. \"Jump, Little Children\" kicks things off with a lively bounce, while \"The Killin' Floor\" heads somewhere deeper. His take on \"Trouble In Mind\" is warm and unhurried, and \"Everyday I Have The Blues\" carries the confidence of a man who has sung it a thousand times.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTerry's harmonica whoops and cries around the guitar lines, the sound of two players who knew each other's every move.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is a quietly essential piece of acoustic blues, and a lovely place to start for anyone new to McGhee's catalogue.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57188209852721,"sku":"888072760370","price":37.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0704\/2026\/7313\/files\/Brownie_McGhee-Brownies_Blues_Bluesville_Acoustic_Sounds_Series.jpg?v=1793289765","url":"https:\/\/vinyl.com\/products\/brownie-mcghee-brownies-blues-bluesville-acoustic-sounds-series","provider":"Vinyl.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
