Subject: RE: Help--Rev. Gary Davis Book
How do you get in touch with Stephan Grossman? I knew him in Greenwich Village 40 years ago. A great guitarist then!

I also had the rare pleasure of attending a service given by Rev. Davis. I was working in a small factory in the Bronx, in New York City, There was a store front church next door. One day, in the middle of the afternoon, I heard incredible singing coming from the church. I went in, and it was the Rev. A small man, a little hard of hearing, only a few people on rough benches in the dimly-lit church. But he made the walls shake. He shook me. God rest his soul.
