Title: Rev. Gary Davis 3-CD Set
Post by: lindy on July 09, 2020, 12:13:53 PM

Many of you have probably seen the announcement for the sale of this set from Stefan Grossman's website. Most (all?) of the songs were recorded by Ernie Hawkins in his apartment when Rev. Davis was a house guest. Relaxed atmosphere, different tempos than what we're used to hearing, no pressure for making a "perfect" recording for an LP.

I just spent some pleasant morning time listening to a bunch of excerpts, you may be interested in doing the same:

I downloaded this set yesterday and am listening to it now. Wonderful stuff, but then I would say that. He's my favourite, most listened to guitar player :)
Highly recommended,
All the best, Ned

Thank you Lindy and Old Man Ned. I received an e-mail from Stefan yesterday tipping me off and I'll be camping out by the mailbox waiting its arrival (masked up, of course).
