doc watson, 1923-2012


Bluegrass legend Doc Watson is dead at age 89. He was simply a great musician, with a great gusto for life.

I saw him perform at several festivals in my younger days. Bluegrass is meant to be heard live, and when you saw Doc Watson play, you felt like you could listen to bluegrass all day long.
