Saturday, January 29, Rev. Gary Davis Recordings Newly Issued. Labels: blues guitarDr. The Legend Live. Labels: B. Shemekia Copeland impressed me the first time I saw her perform as she was with her father, Johnny Copeland. And her dad was beaming on stage listening to his baby perform. Her late father undoubtedly would not Album) surprised by how far his daughter as come, being one of the biggest attractions in the blues today.
