Grammy nominated for Best Traditional Blues album, plus Two BMA Nominations including Acoustic Record of the Year!

Sonny & Brownie's Last Train by the Ambassador of the Blues, Guy Davis and international harmonica sensation Fabrizio Poggi. The deep, acoustic blues sessions took place in Milan Italy and were recorded live in the studio. The result captured the special musical connection that Guy and Fabrizio possess from the years of playing and recording together. 'Sonny & Brownie's Last Train' marks the 14th recording by Guy Davis in his storied career and his third with M.C. Records. His first 'Juba Dance' was produced by Fabrizio Poggi and also recorded in Italy. Guy Davis explains the concept of the recording, 'Brownie McGhee and Sonny Terry were two musicians whose work will not be surpassed, let alone improved on. This musical opus, was produced by Fabrizio Poggi. It features our combined musical talents, and is not meant to compete with the originals. It's meant to be a love letter to Brownie and Sonny signed by the both of us. They were two of my favorites.' Guy Davis once said, 'I like antiques and old things, old places, that still have the dust of those who've gone before us lying upon them.' Blowing that dust off just enough to see its beauty is something Guy has excelled at for over twenty years of songwriting and performing. It's no wonder his reverence for the music of the Blues Masters who've gone before him has been evident in every album he's ever recorded or concert he's given.
