  • Blind Rev. Gary Davis played from his heart... If you love guitar playing, you can't help but agree that these people are the true giants: Blind Rev. Davis, Blind Lemon Johnson, Blind Willie McTell, Son House, Mississippi John Hurt, Big Bill Broonzy and many many others.

  • nobody - and I mean nobody - beats the Rev

  • I bet you could just have handed him a guitar in his sleep and he would have played like this. Well, maybe he was sleeping...

  • @cyrillo9 Where did you hear that his mother was Hawaiian? I suppose it's possible that she had some Hawaiian relatives on her father's side, since I don't know anything about them, but she was also Jewish and her mother's family came from Czechoslovakia. I agree 100% about him being a great musician.

  • @puzzlebustermail

    thats funny....but damn is he a good picker!

  • is he asleep?

  • 3 people don't know their ass from deep center field...

  • @jimmy2utube I couldn't agree more... and Skip James, my personal favorite (although I'm sure he's included in your many many others category!)

  • @edcerc agreed, but don't cal tribal musics 'primitive'. It's disrespectful.

  • @thumbpickr1812

    sigh, i hate it when people make a fucking competition out of music. all composers have their niche and offer different perspectives and nuances. so dont go around saying shit like "nobody beats the rev", all it does it shuts you off to other great musicians who totally could offer sounds and atmosphere that the rev would otherwise not produce. not disrespect to the rev, he is one of my favorites, but no one is the best.

  • Part of Mike Bloomfield's great contribution came from his unique roots. His dad was Jewish, and his mom was Hawaiian His maternal uncles were Hawaiian slack-key guitarists. He was a generous and wonderful person and musician. Cyril Caster

  • He is sleeping ;)
