"This disc is ALL NEW material, contains many otherwise unrecorded solos and a walloping sermon to boot. Reverend Gary Davis profoundly influenced Bob Dylan, The Grateful Dead (Bob Weir was his pupil), Jorma Kaukonene, Taj Mahal, and the entire folk scene of the 1960s. World Arbiter discovered professional tapes of Davis made of works otherwise unrecorded, including a Sunday service during which he offered a fiery sermon. This is the most comprehensive cross-section of his artistry ever presented: blues, ragtime, gospel and more." Recorded 1955-57; 78 minutes; extensive liner notes by World Arbiter's Allan Evans.
