Notes: Lot's of living room chatter between Rev. Gary Davis and the guests.
I have chosen to leave all that in for historical purposes.
This is a reel to reel recording made in 1968 at my home. We had Reverend Gary Davis over for dinner prior to a concert he was to perform the next evening. He was gracious enough to offer to play a few tunes for the guests after dinner. As you can hear there were quite a few people there sitting around our small living room while Gary performed. There was a great deal of interaction with Gary. Many of those present didn't know much about him and he answered our interesting or naive questions graciously interspersing his responses with some patter about each song he played. Obviously it was a wonderful experience and I'm glad I recorded it for the historical record. Later I learned more about Gary Davis and really could appreciate his importance in the world of music.
On CD 2, I have no idea what track 11 is (My Grandmother's cat). I have never heard that before but it sounds great.

I have no idea who wrote these words, and in whose home this event recorded. I have downloaded this album over the internet a few years ago.
