    White Boy Lost in the Blues

    "White Boy Lost in the Blues" My career as a songwriter enjoyed a great leap forward when I was lucky enough to work on the “Sonny and Brownie” album. In addition to “White Boy Lost in the Blues,” I wrote two other  songs for the project and played on several cuts. Needless to say, working in the studio with them was quite a thrill, especially for an absolute greenhorn like myself. The entire experience made me feel hopeful that I might be able to have a future in music. And to this day when I think about Sonny and Brownie and replay those memories, I still feel so grateful that they liked my tunes and recorded them. And I’d also like to express my thanks to Lyle Lovett who recorded the song more recently and whose terrific version breathed new life into it.  These photos, taken by the great Norman Seef, are from the album artwork.  Brownie McGhee - photographer Norman Seeff Sonny Terry - photographer Norman Seeff

    Episode Zero

    Episode Zero In this intro, Veronica and I describe some of the subjects we’ve already discussed or plan to discuss in the forthcoming episodes. We’ve recorded nearly a year’s worth of episodes so far and plan to release them once a month. The title of the podcast is borrowed from a book of memoirs I’ve been writing about my career and all the great musicians with whom I’ve had the pleasure to work.
