Clarence "Gatemouth" Brown

Clarence 'Gatemouth' Brown is a maestro of the Texas guitar blues - an explosive mixture of Blues, R & B, Country, Jazz and Cajun. 'Gate', who draws full sounds from his electric guitar and is also a full-fledged violinist, can look back over 50 years of stage experience. Watching him in action is proof of his prolific career.

Blending influences from his Louisiana and Texas roots to create a sound uniquely his own, Clarence "Gatemouth" Brown brings his brand of blues to this 1996 live performance that first aired as part of the PBS series "Austin City Limits." Tracks include "Ain't That Dandy," "Born in Louisiana," "Bits and Pieces," "Honky-Tonk," "Dark End of the Hallway," "Up Jumped the Devil" and more.

July 12, 2004 was a very special night at the Montreux Festival for any blues fan. With Carlos Santana as musical director (and special guest guitarist), three musical legends took to the stage; each one delivering a full concert set packed with some of the finest blues guitar playing you'll ever hear. Bobby Parker, Clarence "Gatemouth" Brown and Buddy Guy are all headline acts in their own right so it was a real coup to get them on one line-up. Throw in the guest appearances by Carlos Santana and Chic maestro Nile Rodgers and blues heaven is complete!
