    Rev. Gary Davis was the king of what used to be called 'Carny guitar' a cross of blues, gospel and ragtime popular in the 30s and then again in the 60s because of the folk music revival. He came to my attention through Roy Bookbinder (also worth looking into) when I was a budding teenager. It's a style I have loved all my adult life, so thank you. Maybe Pink Anderson's 'Travelin Man' next? Doc Watson's or Roy Bookbinder's would be great!

    I love your vids brother. Some people talk for 10 minutes and you’ve learned nothing, some people fly through it like you already know the song. Yours are perfect. IMO the best in the internet. Keep up the great work man 🤘🏻

    Happy to see people interested in Jorma, who was my mentor. Since he taught me (and my section) his tunes himself, I won't nit pick -- there are too many things. BUT I just had to respond to your comment around 12:00. Jorma's five-finger G7 chord (which he used to call his "Bo Diddley" chord) -- it's sort of the basis for a lot of his old tunes, and I'm afraid you simply won't be able to play some of them without the right chord. For example, on "Search My Heart," he does a very distinctive slide INTO the chord each time -- if there's a way around it, I don't know it. The right chord is: low string - thumb on third fret, 5th string - middle finger on second fret, 4th string - ring finger on third fret. 3rd string - open G, 2nd string - pinky on third fret, first string - index finger on 1st fret. SO it's G B F, G, D, F. Of course, that's a jumping off point to do a lot of improvisation while maintaining the bass part. You are also set up then for the descending piano rolls on the 2nd and 4th strings. As for that bass, he can do it as an inside out pick - 5-4-6-4 so that the chord can sort of be applied in two steps, with the thumb getting secure after the rest of it. I don't remember it being a problem for me or any of his students there. BTW His hands are big but not huge. When I hung around with him he was about 6'2" maybe, and lanky. The Maestro is 83 now and going strong! I hope this helps!

    EXCELLENT !!! ❤ This song will be my next. I actually play J. Kaukonen's "Genesis" on a cedar GS5 Taylor* and it sounds great.
    Hesitation blues is one or two or three steps higher with more complicated and various picking patterns.
    BluesRag guitar recently led me to discover Gary Davis and... Wow.

    * + Gretsch Deltoluxe hole mic on Fishman Loudbox, but anyway pure acoustic sound suits me most of the time.

    You are an amazing player and so is Jorma. First time I saw him on t.v. play with Jefferson airplane I was a little kid and he blew my mind on how easy he made it look. Thanks a ton for sharing.

    @pauld7704 Před 8 měsíci

    The G7 with the thumb over the neck is similar to the G7 that Rev. Davis used, but the Rev. could also get the D on the B-string with his pinkie finger and F on the high e-string with his index finger, it’s nuts

    Good vid. The song goes back before Rev Gary Davis, it was composed earlier by Jelly Roll Morton, a very early jazz piano composer, before 1915 and played in the New Orleans bawdy houses. before it was recorded. [ czcams.com/video/qC_ZN9rsW1E/video.html ]
