  • I met Rev Davis in 1971 at the Kent State folk festival. It was at a guitar workshop. Me and several other guitar "hotshots" who didn't know who he was looked doubtful as Rolly Brown led him into the room. By the time 5 minutes had passed, all we could do was stare at him stupidly with our mouths open. He blew us all away.

  • Sometime around 62 or 63 my brother came home with a Rev Davis album. At the time I was trying to sound like Ramblin Jack. Sounding like the Reverend was barely possible and after a wHile I stopped trying and just listened. Still am.

  • ive seen roy a few times and he always spoke in his new york accent....kinda funny to hear him getting country there at the begining haha

  • Excellent!

  • Check out the swedish acoustic group Piedmont Project. They keep the East Coast blues alive over in Europe and have a great fingerpicker! Doc is their main inspiration!

  • How do I find this band and where are they based? I love old Roy, seen him many times in the US and UK, but I live in northern Sweden!

  • Roy, you've always been one of my favorites! Hope you're still playing somewhere! In March '81 you autographed two albums for me. They're treasures now.

  • yep, bookbinder is a national treasure!

  • The Reverend Gary Davis, his light is still shining and will never dim, he still brings friends together! Shine On!...Reg

  • For over twenty years, Roy spent many a week at our "Arts" summer camp, Med-O-lark in Maine. He was always loved by all, and is one of the finest musicians and friends that we have ever known. Roy, Where are you? Please get in touch. Neal

  • Now thats Authentic folk-blues! One of a Kind... brilliance. (5 stars)

  • I saw Roy in Saratoga at Lena's last year, what a Treasure!

  • Roy is an amazing player. His stories with Pink Anderson are my favorite. I am sure Rev Gary is looking down at his boys and smiling at their playing and sharing his love of God and the Blues.

    Keep carrying the flame Roy...
