Everybody who ever sat with Doc and played a few notes ended up a better musician. Influenced so many pickers back in the 60s, gave everybody something to try. Thank you Doc, you made it look easy, but you were a legend in your time and beyond.
Doc your music made us know you, even through we never meet, Thanks. Play a little of cripple creek for my son Matt, up there in heaven he will know who its from.
I have seen Doc several times. This is some of the best music on the planet. Let's see, listen on a porch watching the sunset with a cold beer and a good friend. Thanks.....
Thanks Doc, I've seen you twice at the Winfield Festival. Saw you every chance I got on TV and DVD,s. I listen to you often in my home. You were an inspiration, a joy, a gentleman, a wise elder, a master musician, a wonderful family man both in his own family and his extended musical family, and a good God Praising Man. You will be missed til the day we meet again. I thank God that we will have your music until then.
Thank you Doc for many a good tune and many a good time! I feel lucky and honored to have seen you and Merle play may your light go on forever as your music certainly shall
Sometime the right kind of music at just the right the time is just what an ailing soul needs to recover from botheren them. Now sing those milk cow blues like ya mean it.
Doc can do it all! Him and Merle on the album Live and Kicking ( or is it Picking? )do the gold standard of this song...the album is hard to find though.
my great grandmother was his teacher back in the day... no lie. My great grandma is Reka Shoemake, gone now, but its ok. I'm gonna see Doc this friday at Rio Theater.
For such an important guitarist, I'm surprised that Doc's videos don't get too many hits. No wonder nobody seems to care for my version of Doc Watson's Jailhouse Blues over on my channel!
@chadarseneau1 Well allright! Hope you are still out there listening to some good music! You got a great grandkid there, too! Raising a glass to you tonight, up here in the north!
