3	The Best of the Blues [MCA Special Products] (1990) more music like this by Various Artists Certainly, a single-disc budget-line collection such as MCA Special Products' Best of the Blues can't live up to its title, but those expecting such a disc to be a definitive introduction to such a rich idiom as the blues are simply deluding themselves.

17 view cover	Brownie McGhee & Sonny Terry at the 2nd Fret (1963) more music like this by Brownie McGhee & Sonny Terry Sonny Terry & Brownie McGhee were the ultimate blues duo; McGhee's stylized singing and light, flickering guitar was wonderfully contrasted by Terry's sweeping, whirling harmonica solos and intense, country-tinged singing.

Although not quite in a class with McGhee's magnificent work with Sonny Terry in the 1950s and '60s, Truth is a consistently appealing ... see all copies from $16.19! new only from $16.19!
