Do we know what the NAME of this recording was? Makes it easier to find.

Amazon.com list 15 Reverend Gary CD's. Take a look there, it may be one of these.

There's a complete discography of Davis at this site - scroll down to 'discography' link:

Rev Gary Davis

The 'text only' links for CDs and LPs do not seem to work, but the ones with graphics work fine. You should be able to find the details there.

Hello. I think the songs in question are "I Got Religion, I'm So Glad" and "I'm A Soldier In The Army Of The Lord" from the out-of-print cassette put out by Stefan Grossman's Guitar Workshop in 1984.

As far as I know this material has not been made available in any other format.

Now a plug for my website, in case you didn't already know about it www.reverendgarydavis.com (a work in progress)

Oops I forgot to mention the name of the out-of-print cassette released by Stefan Grossman's Guitar Workshop that has the 'rare' songs in question: the cassette is titled "Lo' I Be With You Always".

The songs, again, are "I Got Religion, I'm So Glad" and "I'm A Soldier In The Army Of The Lord".

Wonderful Job Easy Ed. The Rev. has been an inspiration to me for many years, since I first heard (the first recording of) Oh Lord Search My heart. This is a bookmark I'll return to many times.

Thanks

Any hardcore RGD fans may want to have a look at this as well.
