Album Summary
Wonderful, rare Davis recordings. The sessions that created New Blues And Gospel were the last before Reverend Gary Davis' death and feature the only studio version of Whistlin' Blues. This album was never released in its original form on CD and some of the tracks are not available anywhere else. One of the finest releases by one of the best blues guitar pickers
(3-CD set) Rare recordings made by Stefan Grossman of Rev. Gary Davis at home and at his storefront church. This three CD collection presents blues, rags, gospel, tin pan alley and folk tunes as well as Rev. Davis preaching in church. A very unique and complete portrait of this legendary musician.
