He does it all masterfully. No such thing as a bad Davy Graham recording but all of these tracks are solid. They really showcase his ability. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ A great album of guitar sounds *by S***U on Reviewed in the United States on September 5, 2017* A really good solo guitar album by Davey (& or Davy) Graham, and one I always seem to come back to. I think it is very listenable,even if you aren't as interested in learning the guitar techniques displayed here.The Irish tunes tend to be my favourites here, but overall I think the other melodies and how Grahamhas arranged them, are just as good. But I think the album works better without the addition of tracks from the two other albums,which are also still available from Grossman's Guitar Workshop.Some other details that would be nice knowing I add here:One track here is titled ' Renaissance Piece ' (as on the original LP cover), but it should quite probably be called " Se Lo M' Accorgo " (according to one of John Renbourn'sbooks it could be translated as '' Had I But Known ".The composer was anonymous, but some has linked the piece to Vincenzo Galilei.There is a tablature PDF on later issues of this CD, I'm not sure if it is present on this olderedition from the 1990s.The vinyl album on Kicking Mule had a somewhat different set of tablatures handwritten, with instructionsby the author.For the Irish tracks he tunes the guitar to EADEAE (3rd & 2nd string tuned down).Apparently he learned this tuning from Martin Carthy, singer and excellent guitarist too.It is a very effective tuning at least for these kind of melodies.He played the hymn tunes on a high strung guitar in 'Nashville tuning' (the lowest4 strings are replaced with the high octave strings from a 12-string.There are various free videos on this subject elsewhere on the web.The album is highly recommended, with or without the extra tracks.Otherwise I would prefer getting those bonus recordings in their right context:Dance For Two People & Blues Guitar Workshop ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ One of the finest musicians that Britain has ever produced *by P***G on Reviewed in the United States on February 3, 2002* Davey Graham is a British guitarist from the early 60s who pioneered a style of acoustic guitar playing called Folk Baroque. What Davey did was to combine blues, folk and jazz and create something new. The music of Pentangle, Bert Jansch and John Renbourne would have been unthinkable without him. The eclecticism that informs his music is on display on this 1979 album, 'The Complete Guitarist,' which also has tracks from 'Dance For Two People' and his three contributions to 'Blues Workshop.'Davey plays without accompaniment throughout this album and he is all the better for it. A brilliant guitarist, he tackles his material with authority and aplomb. Traditional songs such as 'Hardiman the Fiddler' and 'The Road to Lisdoonvana' mingle with classical pieces by Robert De Visee and Vaughan Williams. Jazz mingles with Blues. This eclectic mix works maybe because Davey was born in England to a Scottish father and an African mother. This has given him an open mind and a broad perspective and he is an accomplished enough musician to carry this through into his music. Davey was into World Music (African, Moorish, Indian) long before the term was invented, and on some of his earlier albums recorded in the 60s, (That's right! Right back in the 60s!) Davey even plays some African and Indian songs on their original instruments. However, this side of him is not represented here. What is here: Blues, folk, jazz, classical, - is excellent. He is a master of the instrument: The best guitarist that Britain has produced - only John Renbourn can match him. Most of his albums have been patchy, but this one is a delight throughout. There is not one duff track here. If you like acoustic guitar music, then I heartily recommend this album.Davey was a friend of Alexis Korner, the founding father of British rock. He said of Davey that he is "a genuinely gifted guitarist who rightly, refuses to let himself be fenced into one field of music. The great traditional folk banjo and guitar pickers have influenced his playing. Josh White...has also exerted considerable influence. But then, so have the great modern jazz players. The fierce belief of good Gospel groups, the great blues singers, all have influenced him as have the Baroque composers."Davey Graham is an inspiration and a joy to listen to, and this is his very best album. There are informative sleeve notes by Duck Baker. I even like the leather jacket Davey wears on the cover. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.om/products/21790292-the-complete-guitarist](https://www.desertcart.com.om/products/21790292-the-complete-guitarist) --- *Product available on Desertcart Oman* *Store origin: OM* *Last updated: 2026-05-20*
