The secret rhythm inside Rev. Gary Davis's "Candy Man"

Rev. Gary Davis is no simple guitar player, but take even an easy sounding tune like Candy Man, and you'll find out real quick why so many guitarists went up to New York to study with Davis in the 60's. Not to mention dorks like me still obsessing over his stuff to this day.

I'm not sure what the right word is for the piece. Misleading. Trickery. A big hoax. Or just plain ignorance. Whatever it is, the secret's out, but is Rev. is still definitely getting the last laugh.
