Cocaine Blues - verse

«Cocaine Blues» is a typical Rev. Gary Davis arrangement in C-major. It has an 8-bar structure, but does not follow any standard form. I have written both the verse and a break. Notice bar 3 and 4 in the break. We go fron C to E to F. It is not easy, but it sounds good. You should also notice the 5/4 in bar 4.

Novelty Instrumentals of Rev. Gary Davis In this lesson Ernie Hawkins teaches three Rev. Davis arrangements that will challenge your fingers. Rev. Gary Davis's tour de force in concert was his "Soldiers March." This is a multi-part instrumental played in the Key of F and C and is a showcase in demonstrating the genius of Rev. Davis's playing and arranging skills. Few country blues guitarists played in the Key of F but Rev. Davis explored this key with religious as well as old pop standards. RefNr: SGGW984DVD

Rev. Gary Davis: The Video Collection Over the years Stefan Grossman has searched for films and videos of my teacher, Rev. Gary Davis. His playing has influenced many fingerstyle guitarists. His words and warmth were especially important to his handful of dedicated students. In this collection I have put together all the footage that I have found to date. The recording quality ranges from excellent to poor but the music is always superb. RefNr: SGGW13111
