Rev. Gary Davis was a musical genius. His music and guitar playing spanned a century of different techniques, styles and ideas and touched on so many musical formats, i.e. blues, ragtime, folk, gospel, marching songs and tin pan alley hits. In this series of four lessons, Ernie Hawkins teaches fourteen of Rev. Davis's most requested and famous gospel guitar arrangements. Rare footage of Rev. Davis playing many of the tunes taught in this collection is featured.
Ernie gives you a detailed rundown of each arrangement, analyzing the structure and timing of each phrase, verse and chorus and then replaying everything slower on a split screen with close-ups of both hands. A comprehensive 80 page tab/music booklet is included. All in all, almost six hours of instruction is presented.
Disc One: Keep Your Lamp Trimmed and Burning, Samson and Delilah (If I Had My Way)
Disc Two: Children of Zion, Oh Glory How Happy I Am, I Belong To The Band, Goin' To Sit Down On The Banks Of The River
Disc Three: Death Don't Have No Mercy, Twelve Gates To The City, Let Us Get Together, Right Now
Disc Four: I Heard The Angels Singing, Crucifixion, I Am The Light Of This World, You Got To Move

Thank you for taking the time to teach all the runs who imo are so instrumental for this classic.
I saw Rev. Davis many times live in the 60's in folk clubs like the Club 47. He was a gospel preacher not a blues man but like a lot of the blues guys of that era he wasn't limited by strict precise timing like modern musicians. It was more fluid and improvised. He was a big man and usually played a Gibson sj-200 type jumbo when I saw him and smoked cigars hanging out the corner of his mouth on-stage. He'd let the ash build up on the tip of the cigar until you'd think it was just about to fall off on his shirt but he knew just when to flick it.
Back in '35 he recorded some blues songs.
However, all the forceful shouting only happened when he played gospel tunes.
I think he probably started out as a bluesman.
Ernie is by far the best teacher of this technique.
Hello Ernie Hawkins. I just got onto your video a few days ago...I read that that they were posted 11 and 15 yrs ago. I enjoyed them so much that I prayed you were still with us, then I found this! A good song I will enjoy learning...after I get the other off pat! Good luck to you, I wish you well.
I first learned this from a book on Davis by Stephen Grossman. I have a recording I believe the Newport Folk festival. This is the truest version I have heard and all the runs so beautifully done.Thank you for posting this lesson of a timeless guitar piece. Mr Hawkins teaching is always a discivery n a whole other level
5:24 So GREAT that you take the time to let us tune TO YOU. I've never seen any teacher do that! Also, too few teachers name the key! THANKS!
Thank you. We are here! Thank you so much for everything
Excellent tuition & presentation. I searched through what is available, on this song, your lesson nails it. Thankyou . Bravo, noice guitar by the way.
Wow, what a brilliant mind!!!
downloaded your free tab of this song from stefan grossman years ago. never saw this video. very awesome. I have one of your books and love how your tabs are very easy to follow and really drive home the important parts of the song for us to develop our own tweaks around. Salute.
Amazing clarity. ✌️
Awesome. I would like to see an update from Stefan to just see how he is doing.
I'm doing fine. On my way back to beautiful Yorkshire.
@@GtrWorkShp oh how wonderful, I’m pleased to hear your doing well.
@@GtrWorkShp I only visited Yorkshire once. went on a nice tour including a silly ghost walk. the guide told us to be aware to say any shire as shaw so it's YORK-SHAW?
@@lamper2Close, if you pronounce it YORK-shuh, placing most of the emphasis on 'York'. Most English place names almost swallow the last syllable, as opposed to American pronunciation, which still emphasises the latter syllable.
For example, Birming-HAM, Alabama, compared to BIRMING-um, England. Both spelled the same, but couldn't sound more different. Good luck 👍.
@@GtrWorkShp This Yorkshire lass misses her birth place. But loving this channel and your guitar lessons. Returning to it after 30 years of never plucking a string has been a very different experience to the initial frustrations of learning in pre-internet days, thanks in large part to your books and videos, Mr Grossman. Thank you for the effort you make with your teaching.
is this the deepest song ever written ? its goes soo hard
I probably bought all his videos on vestapol. Stefan Grossman is another one.
Great teachers.
Hi thank you. It would have helped a lot if you could have played the song once through so I could learn to sing it and learn the chords. Then I could work on the guitar runs you teach so nicely.
Where the footing from Rev. Garry Davis comes from? OK it says in the video... just couldn't wait.
❤❤❤
his guitar really has his own life :D
Jeez.
Doc dawg
Dude you don't need to tell how tune a guitar. If they can't tune a guitar. Then they are not ready for Gary Davis. Cary in Tucson
But then there is some dvds like one of bob brozmans where he isn’t quite in Eb or E, he’s in between and every time I listen to it I wish he had quickly gone through the tuning 🤷🏼♂️
This istuned lower than E probably C to C
Any statement beginning with "Dude" is usually best ignored.:-]
@@masteronone2079Dude youre absolutely right
Hi, can you explain in what notes the strings are tuned?
Standard tuning
E A B, a Bluesmans home
so heavy
Philosophy is wrong, but tune is nice. Death is Mercy. Death is the great emancipator ! 💓
Death is the work of sin.
@@ZazenFlyin
Death is the end of sin, NOT WORK of sin ! Death is Our new beginning ! ☝️
@@SweetChicagoGator Set yourself free and start anew
@@glennmuir5617
Blessed free since I was 10 ! ...and you?
I do believe you are misinterpreting. It's about how death will come for anyone regardless of age, appearance, whatever
