Just wow... before he passed away, I had the amazing privilege of taking about 8 in-person lessons from Rev Davis, and I hope it's not disrespectful to say your version was pure delight, he would have been so proud... I wonder if you've mastered Hesitation Blues yet... and I would love to add THANK YOU so much for keeping these legendary artists' music alive... I need to listen to everything you play now...

I met Reverend Gary in the Gaslight Cafe in New York . He was with Stefan Grossman . He was all dressed up shined shoes and a fine suit and wearing sun glasses .I was sitting in the Greenroom with them I Remember Stefan was cutting the tip off of cigar and lighting it for the Reverend . The Reverend began telling a story about a woman he knew. Stephen was correcting tablature in a spiral notebook. He was writing down Candyman . He’d stop and sing a part and then write it down. When the time came he led The Reverend out on the stage of the Gaslight and I went back to washing dishes. Funny me a white boy working as a porter in a night club and Gary a Blackman was the star performer passing each other like subway trains in the underground.

I have no idea how she can do that little thing with her voice when she says CandyMan. It's unbelievably good.

Now you’ve kept me up really late - it’s 3:45 a.m. But it was worth it. Thank you so much. Great to hear you telling this crowd about who Rev. Gary Davis was.

Ah! The confidence you showed for your first time out was incredible - whether or not you felt it inside. Getting those guitar fills in just shows your talent, as people generally play to about 80% of capability on stage vs at home. Superb! It’s a pity the guitar came across a bit tinny, but it didn’t detract from the performance. Well done, Muireanne!

I wasn't feeling too confident, my throat was dry and tight, and I couldn't hit the low notes, and I was rushing a bit, but I think it will be easier next time . I think they are going to give me the video with sound from the desk, so maybe I"ll post that when I get it!

A perfect rendition and it was your first live performance? Well, you absolutely nailed it! Seen you on Jools and I'm very sure we'll all be seeing a lot more of your wonderful singing and note perfect guitar work. At the very least, the very least, you should be invited to play Glastonbury. Or see you on tour!

Damn it’s so crazy how her southern accent forms when she’s singing. I’m from the Uk and live in the Southern states of the US and I learned so much ragtime, country, folk and blues and that accent isn’t something simple for Brits.

It take a while to learn how to relate to an audience,I used to babble on as a way of delaying the moment I would have to play......................Bad Idea,just dive right in and get swiiming,you're in the deep end of the pool now...............................................
