Dave Van Ronk's DVD lesson spans a wide variety of exciting and powerful music. The blues of Leroy Carr & Scrapper Blackwell; the "old fashion" picking of Rev. Gary Davis, the ragtime bounce of Blind Blake, the sophisticated blues of Brownie McGhee, the country blues of Jim Jackson, a children's ring song and a Van Ronk original, all receive the unique Dave Van Ronk treatment. Each arrangement is discussed and explained in detail. This is a complete lesson for the intermediate guitarist that clearly illustrates how traditional music can be placed in a fingerstyle setting.
Titles include: Green Green Rocky Road, Kansas City Blues, Sportin' Life Blues, Sunday Street, Spike Driver's Moan, That Will Never Happen No More, Midnight Hour Blues, Cocaine Blues and Down South Blues
