Publisher : Mel Bay
For the intermediate to advanced fingerstyle guitarist
In notation and tablature

In this book, six of Rev. Davis' Holy Blues are presented - gospel songs with a taste of the blues. The accompanying three CDs of lessons teach these arrangements phrase by phrase as well as presenting the original recordings.  

Lesson 1: Rev. Davis played many gospel songs with a blues feel. These are referred to as ""Holy Blues." "Death Don't Have No Mercy" is an excellent example of a Holy Blues in the key of Em. "Let Us Get Together" follows, and is played in the key of G. This is a difficult arrangement illustrating Rev. Davis's control over his right hand.
Lesson 2: Rev. Gary Davis's religious arrangements in the key of C: "I Belong to the Band" and "Tryin' to Get Home".
Lesson 3: For ragtime playing Rev. Davis would approach his guitar as if it were a piano. For gospel songs the guitar takes on the role of a full Baptist church! In this lesson we study two gospel arrangements, "Pure Religion" and "I Am the Light of the World". Both are played in the key of C and have become popular in today's pop world.
