Three kings: Sonny, Brownie, and Pete

Man, I wish I’d been cognizant back in the mid-60’s, when Pete Seeger had this terrific TV show, “Rainbow Quest.” Not many folks actually got to see these shows, but I can imagine that those who did were deeply influenced by them. In addition to Sonny Terry and Brownie McGhee, a whole slew of stellar folk and blues players appeared on the show, with Pete chatting them up in his syrupy, intoxicating voice.

Excuse me while I hop into my time machine…
