Oh What a Beautiful City: A Tribute to Reverend Gary Davis

€30.03
British journalist and writer Robert Tilling lovingly compiled this touching tribute to the great American Guitar genius Reverend Gary Davis . His enthusiasm for the Reverend's powerful music started after seeing him on his first UK concert tour in 1964. Reverend Gary Davis (1896-1972) was an African American blues and gospel singer and guitarist. His fingerpicking style was extremely influential; his students in New York City in the 1960s included Stefan Grossman, Roy Bookbinder, Woody Mann, and Ernie Hawkins . Davis' musical influence extends throughout modern American music from the Grateful Dead and Bob Dylan to Keb Mo and Olabelle . Chapters in this revised and updated biography include a detailed Chronology, Discography, Concert and Record Reviews, quotations, contributions from musicians and admirers as well as over 100 photographs.
