52 Guitars: Week 41

Doc Watson
I'm pressed for time today, but I don't want to put this off, so I won't say much. You already know who Doc Watson was, right? If not, you can read about him here. I'll confine my remarks to repeating what Dylan said about him: that his playing was like water flowing from a spring.
"Windy and Warm":
"Black Mountain Rag":
"Deep River Blues":
Excellent choice. I saw him many times when I was going to bluegrass festivals in the 70s. By all accounts the stage presence was no act and he was a sweet sweet man.

Very enjoyable, Maclin.
