Biography

Sonny Terry was a giant of the blues--one of the best known and most influential of all blues harmonica players. His signature shrill, 'whooping' style of acoustic folk blues harp was imitated by hundreds of players. In a career that spanned 50 years and took him from Carolina street corners to concert stages worldwide, Terry defined a style of harmonica that is still a cornerstone of the blues… Read more in Amazon's Sonny Terry Store

5.0 out of 5 stars Sonny is, without a doubt, king., January 20, 2005

Kavity Killer (denver, colorado United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Sonny Is King (Audio CD)
This is country blues, pure and simple. Beautifully and masterfully performed by Sonny (harp) and, if I'm not mistaken, Lightnin' Hopkins (guitar) on most tracks. Sonny has a totally unique harp style and his singing really shines on this (I prefer his singing to Brownie's). It just doesn't get much more elemental and primally American than on tracks like "One Monkey Don't Stop My Show" "Ida Mae" or "'Tater Pie" Lightnin' and Sonny tearin' it up, probably all first takes too. A lost classic masterpiece.
