These songs have become well known through the playing of Bob Dylan (Baby Let Me Lay It On You) Jackson Browne (Cocaine Blues) Hot Tuna (Hesitation Blues) John Renbourn Stefan Grossman Ramblin' Jack Elliot Hot Tuna and a host of other musicians (Candyman). Rev. Davis approached playing the blues in several different styles. Each had unique characteristics and ranged from what he called ""old fashion picking"" to complex playing that explored and extended the blues tradition on the fingerboard. Each arrangement is broken down phrase by phrase and then played slowly on a split screen. You can easily follow the playing with the tab/music booklet. As a bonus we have included various audio performances of Rev. Davis playing each song. Volume One: Spoonful Cocaine Blues Delia Baby Let Me Lay It On You and Candyman (88 minutes) Volume Two: Hesitation Blues Penitentiary Blues Florida Blues and Can't Be Satisfied (88 minutes)
This boxset contains the following films: Kicking & Screaming (Dir. Jesse Dylan) (2005): In Kicking & Screaming funny man Will Ferrell's (Old School Anchorman: The Legend Of Ron Burgundy) humorous man-child antics meet actual kids on the soccer pitch. He plays vitamin salesman Phil Weston a sensitive man easily capable of both crying and sewing. Unfortunately for Phil these qualities have never quite endeared him to his tough-as-nails father Buck (Robert Duvall) who will stop at nothing to one-up Phil. He goes so far as benching Phil's 10-year-old son - his own grandson - on the youth soccer team he coaches. Upon Phil's begging to get his son more playing time Buck trades his grandson to the last-place team the Tigers. Not just any normal cellar-dwelling outfit the Tigers feature a cast of loveable losers who prefer eating worms and telling jokes to playing soccer. When the Tigers' coach leaves putting the season on the line an inexperienced Phil steps in to helm his son's new team. With help from Buck's neighbour and rival real-life football coach Mike Ditka - hilariously playing himself - the Tigers turn their season around. Fuelled by a raging caffeine habit Phil starts to overly obsess with beating Buck losing sight of why he took the job in the first place - to be a better dad to his own son. Director Jesse Dylan (American Wedding) is a natural for the story-line being famed musician Bob Dylan's son. Farrell for once is content to play straight arrow to the crazy tykes in the first half of the film before he unleashes his trademark zaniness in the latter half. Those attributes alone along with fun-loving family themes make Kicking & Screaming a treat for fans both young and old. Talledega Nights (Dir. Adam McKay) (2006): Talledega Nights: The Ballard Of Ricky Bobby is a comedy film about a fictional NASCAR racing driver named Ricky Bobby. It has fun with stereotypes of the sort of people involved with NASCAR racing.
