Now, in what seems to be a series of ‘old time country pickers who have found their great reward’, rest in peace, Doc Watson. Doc was one of the great guitarists. He can join his son Merle who was his constant companion and playing partner until Merle died in 1985.
I had a great clip of Doc and the recently departed Earl Scruggs but there is a 30 second beer commercial on the front of it that won’t go away so sadly, I won’t post it.
Thanks for everything, Doc.

Even though I’d seen Dylan maybe 80+ times before this, I was ready to give up on live shows. I reluctantly went to Laguna Seca and found a really laid back crowd and an engaging Dylan. I was a born again ‘Bob Live’ fan and saw him more than 100 times in the next 7 years.
This Wolfgang’s Vault thing is pretty cool. All soundboard recordings of shows produced by Bill Graham. Through some contractual loophole, the company has certain rights to the performances and they share them. The artists hate it and constantly sue but it’s still there. Check it out!
