There will never be a Doc Watson ever again. He was a true national treasure. The best flatpicker there ever was. I saw him & Merle play at Ebbits Field in Denver 1974. 200 people. Very intimate venue. They were the best ever!!!
So much great music that I've never heard of because of the radio air play. This came up on my suggestions from Mississippi John Hurt. This is the best ever as a fisherman! And this is real talent! Love it!
Good ole Doc not a lot of people knew him when I would play him people would say “who’s that?” Good picking!!Merle passed away in tractor accident, broke Docs heartbreak his son
There was nothing on this planet like Doc and Merle singing and picking with T Michael Coleman. They inspired the Doc and Merle Watson Memorial Festival in Wilksboro, North Carolina getting bigger and better every year.

American Icon!
One of my favorie-est doc thumb-pickin’ tunes with ‘son’ and T. Michael Coleman on bass and harmony vocals
God damn, I cannot get enough of doc playing this song. Thank god for those Watsons!
Old Doc Watson played the best of nearly all of Merle Travis' finger pickin' disciples...
God bless Ireland😊
Le maître du picking guitar
Such a great talent!
COOL ...
John Quinlan led with a cover of that song! Alaska 1975
T. Michael Coleman on bass.
He plays is San Antonio.
This song is really called 'Big River Blues' and it was written and recorded by the Delmore Brothers, check it out.
True. EVERYONE knows that. Not sure what your point is?
@@coryCuc I never knew that.
ageless
#ugottalisten2b4udie My old gal's a good old pal, and she looks like a water fowl when I get them deep river blues.
Classic line :)
@@coryCuc I agree!
I'm here because @Billy Strings ..
Not trying to be insensitive, but is he
visually impaired ?
Yes, Doc Watson was blind from a young age
Yes, from the time he was one year old. I opened at concerts for Doc & Merle in both 1976 and 1978.
