In the early 1940's, bluesman Tim Wilkins made a pact with the Lord to save his beloved wife and honored that "agreement" with the rest of his long life and influential career. For more details, see information about our Blues Vault recording (GCD 9902) and visit Reverend Wilkins film page, where we offer a snippet of his performance at the 1969 Memphis Country Blues Festival. |
Reverend Gary Davis was, perhaps, the most influential musician to emerge from the rediscovery period, perhaps due to his willingness to take young guitarists into his "flock" and share his virtuoso ragtime techniques as well as his abiding faith. For more information, visit our Reverend Gary Davis page (GCD 9908.) A special site dedicated to Reverend Davis has a collection of biographies, as well. |
