Brownie McGhee "A Black Woman’s Man" The Essential 1940-1941

BLACK WOMAN'S MAN is a 24 track collection of songs by American blues legend Brownie McGhee, including "Step It Up And Go," "Prison Woman Blues," "Picking My Tomatoes," and "Let Me Tell You 'bout My Baby." UK collection fulfills a hitherto huge gap, concentrating on the bluesman's very early 'solo' recordings. Includes rarities on which he was billed as Blind Boy Fuller No. 2 & the first sides he recorded with Sonny Terry, his subsequent lifelong singing/performing partner. Few of these sides are available elsewhere on CD. Compiled & annotated by leading blues aficionado Neil Slaven, the booklet/inlay features comprehensive liner notes plus rare photos & ephemera.
