“Death Don’t Have No Mercy” Rev Gary Davis - Lesson

Week 3 - Edinburgh Blues Academy online
Rev Gary advocated morning practice for his students from 7 - 8am and then again in the evening from 8 - 9pm. As he put it “that’s your guitar time.”

Great song, and of the better lessons out there - like the way you cover the break, and emphasize that the player is free to experiment with those rifs during the verse. Up there with the Grossman videos!

“Inimitable style” is for sure. Thanks for the nice video.

Really nice lesson - I just saw acoustic Hot Tuna in Florida. Jorma plays this style as well as anyone I can think of. A dedicated disciple of Rev. Gary Davis!

Thanks. You're a good instructor. Right after barring the B (at 11:37) I like to walk down from B-Bb-A (7-6-5) on the first string; turns it into a B7 and sounds really bluesy to my ears.
