David Michael Gordon Graham, known as Davey Graham (originally Davy Graham), b. 22 November 1940 in Hinckley, Leicestershire, England, is a guitarist who is one of the most influential figures in the folk music revolution in the United Kingdom in the 1960s. He inspired many of the famous practitioners of the fingerstyle acoustic guitar, such as Bert Jansch, John Renbourn, Martin Carthy, Paul Simon and even Jimmy Page, who heavily based his solo "White Summer" on Graham's "She moved thru' the Bizarre/Blue Raga". Graham is probably best-known for his acoustic instrumental, Anji.
