One of the most influential blues guitarists in history - a man who is credited with developing the finger picking style used by such luminaries as Blind Boy Fuller and  Brownie McGhee - Reverend Gary Davis made his first recordings in New York City between July 23 and 26, 1935 after being discovered in Durham, North Carolina by local store manager and Columbia talent scout, J.B. Long. All of those legendary sides are found here on this LP, fourteen tunes that introduced the world to the Piedmont blues style, performed by, arguably, the style’s most important artist.
