An innovative and influential acoustic guitar player on the British folk scene in the 1960s,
Davy Graham's style was diverse and wide-ranging, drawing on myriad strains of music from jazz and blues to skiffle, pop, and pure folk, often performed in inventive tunings. This diverse approach means
Graham's albums were usually wonderfully varied affairs, put together almost like little suites, and 1979's
Dance for Two People is a perfect example, with
Graham putting on a showcase, even branching out on the sarod and the oud, two instruments he was fascinated with, making this a fine introduction to
Graham's mid-period work. ~ Steve Leggett
