Another One Bites The Dust
Damn
It not as though one would think that Doc Watson would have been a favorite of a 16 year-old kid from MN and yet... I was first introduced to his music in 1973 through a long-haired male co-worker (who also would not likely have been pegged as a fan) and immediately fell in love. While my musical tastes are quite eclectic - nobody picks like Doc Watson and he has remained one of the staples in my iTunes library. I don't think it's possible (at least for me) to select a single song that adequately represents his talent or appeal, so I'll imbed three. The first because it remains my favorite rendition of an old classic, the second to demonstrate his versatility and the last ... just for fun.

I'm Going Fishing:
G'night, Doc.
