i'm not religious but i believe the talent and energy of this man and many other great bluesmen will bring their messages across for eternity, just the fact that these recordings can be seen nowadays on the internet fills me with delight and admiration.

What kind of 12 string is that? I read he played a Bozo 12 string but that doesn't like like one.

Great clip of the great Rev. Davis. I wonder if Pete Donovan and Shawn listened to the words.

God bless the ole Rev and Pete Seeger in his time for doing so much. In that time this was the absolute cutting edge and thank goodness someone captured this. I dont complain about a free meal even if my teeth bite into a little lead shot here and there. it's still good eatin'

pete seeger is a legend in his own right so have some respect. i see why you may be annoyed at his trying to play along with everyone but he came from the old days of folk playing where people would all play togeter and join in and enjoy the music and whatnot. plus you have to remember this is his tv show and he's helping show the greats to a wider audience. and just so you know he was a huge figure in the civil rights movement and always fought for justice. and rev davis is amazing.

Django Reinhardt. Due to being burned he could use only 2 fingers on his left hand. With all due respect to Rev Davis, Reinhardt was a far more advanced guitar player (Jazz) but he was not a singer or song writer.

Guess I don't know much about seeger but he sure is damn annoying in all these videos trying to play along with the greats and making himself look like a 1st year student. |
