RIP Doc Watson

[dropKickMurphy]

One of the greatest American musicians.

Saw him perform with his son Merle at the Green Mountain Banjo Fest in 1976.

Despite the mescaline, I'll never forget it.

That's some nice work by Doc.

I have the "Remembering Merle" CD. The song above is included on that album as a duet by Doc and Merle.

The version on the CD will bring tears to your eyes - it's that good.
