Product Review

The first studio collaboration by two of today's best-loved Mississippi blues artists! Over the past decade, Jimmy 'Duck' Holmes and Terry 'Harmonica' Bean have emerged as two of the finest traditional artists from the land where the blues was born. Although they have shared stages together many times, from rural juke joints to major festivals, this CD captures the fruits of their first and only studio collaboration. Featuring a mix of haunting acoustic blues and rollicking electric jams (wit support from veteran Delta drummer Frank Vick), 'Twice As Hard' recaptures the sound of a bygone era of deep Mississippi blues.
