Dave Van Ronks FOLK, BLUES & RAGTIME, spans a wide variety of exciting and powerful music. The blues of Leroy Carr and 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 childrens ring song and a Van Ronk original, all receive the unique Dave Van Ronk treatment. Each arrangements 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. A detailed tab/music instructional booklet is included as a PDF file on the DVD.
