I first heard Doc Watson play this tune in 1961 when I was 13 years old. Nearly 60 years later, I still thrill each time I hear it!

How many takes did you take ? , I know recording kinda makes you lose focus on playing , for me anyway

+creeator Hey there. Maybe one...maybe 15. I can't remember. These basic tunes are sometimes the most difficult to capture. It's like the brain takes a break when faced with too many lick choices. There have been several that definitely took more than 10 takes. I should post the outtakes...minus the cussing, of course...
