Doc Watson

Arthel Lane "Doc" Watson (March 3, 1923 – May 29, 2012) was an American guitarist, songwriter, and singer of bluegrass, folk, country, blues, and gospel music. He won seven Grammy awards as well as a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award. His fingerpicking and flatpicking skills, as well as his knowledge of traditional American music, were highly regarded. Blind from a young age, he performed publicly both in a dance band and solo, as well as for over 15 years with his son, guitarist Merle Watson, until Merle's death in 1985 in an accident on the family farm.

God created Doc to pick with Godlike perfection because God probably wouldn't be able to keep up.

I guess this is just a little reality check/reminder for those of us who were marveling over the guitar playing of Mark Knopfler on that previous Dire Straits song. :-)

Couldn't believe my ears when this song came on.  Friend and myself used to play Windy and Warm together, 25 years ago..Nice job!

Had the pleasure to see Doc and Merle at a bluegrass festival in VA back in early 80’s. So so good once Doc got his guitar tuned just the way he wanted it.




You Lucky Duck!  I wish I had been there too!

Well, Glockie, this is quite a turnaround for a guy who not long ago threatened to track down and kill those of us who called you out for referring to Nelly Furtado as a "gangsta ho". Way to evolve!

Bill,
Rather than a segue to Nick Drake, which I see you've done before, you might like this into Little Martha (Eddie Adcock has a killer version) or Beppe Gambetta's Shenandoah Mountain Breakdown, or his cover of Norman Blake's Church Street Blues, or maybe Greenhouse era Leo Kottke. Loving it here in the Blue Ridge. Thanks.

I'm hearing the opening of Fleetwood Mac's Rhiannon in there occasionally (or the reverse, obviously, given the dates!). Just one of those little earworms that stuck its head out...
