Highlighting trailblazing blues musicians from legendary labels

"Reverend Gary Davis, also known as 'Blind' Gary Davis ... (a) self-taught guitarist and banjo player, blind from birth ... appeared at the inaugural Newport Folk Festival in 1959, and Harlem Street Singer appeared the following year. The album was recorded in a single three-hour session by American recording engineer Rudy Van Gelder and features 12 of Davis' best-known spirituals. ... Harlem Street Singer reminds us of Reverend Gary Davis' power as a singer and his inventiveness as a guitarist, as well as his lyrical ability to get down to the point about his view of human nature in his songs." — Henry L. Carrigan Jr., Living Blues, November 2024

Harlem Street Singer is Blind Gary Davis' 1960 album, originally released on Prestige Records' Bluesville imprint. The album features a combination of Davis-penned tracks, including "Death Don't Have No Mercy," and standards such as "Sampson and Delilah." AllMusic declared that the album is "essential listening for fans of country blues or gospel." This reissue is pressed on 180-gram vinyl at Quality Record Pressings with a replica paper-wrapped tip-on jacket.
