Rev. Gary Davis... now you're getting obscure, but I'm right there. "Say No to the Devil" is my favorite album by the Rev, who stayed at my house for a week back in 1971. Friends came over every day to hang out with this true blues singer of the streets with the fabulous guitar style and the raspy voice with so much soul. He was the blues man / preacher man embodied as he switched back and forth between the "sinful" blues songs and the preachin', shoutin' religious songs. Periodically he would say, "I hear the phone ringin'." (I want a drink) and we'd say "No, Rev, there's no phone ringing'". After a bit of this kind of back and forth, we'd allow as how we heard the phone ringin' and he's say "Sounds like a long distance call" (I want a big drink). What a character! Everybody loved him.

My blues influences were Big Bill Broonzy, Van Ronk, and later BB King and then Jimi Hendrix (LOL). These days I play the fiddle more than anything else.

Best,
