[drunknmonky77]

[koayechan71]

My big bro Doc,ya a million times better than EC.......Yanks`ve the blue grass.... Irish,the green grass......and we;Arabs.....yeah....we`ve the dry grasses......Woooooo!

[MrStreetperson]

,,,and bring some Robert Johnson along too.

[pinchold]

oh, well. nobody can't beat the King.

[gombakhillbillies]

For such an important guitarist, I'm surprised that Doc's videos don't get too many hits. No wonder nobody seems to care for my version of Doc Watson's Jailhouse Blues over on my channel!

[bluesharpindave]

@gombakhillbillies not everybody can see the light. unfortunately it took me a while to discover doc,even tho i,m from up around there. but praise the lord, we,ve seen him twice this summer! cant wait to see him again

[chosenonz]

@chadarseneau1 G-d bless and Happy Valentines, may you see another 102!

[zenmeister451]

I believe even the KINKS did a version of this song way back when. Great music!

[chadarseneau1]

[eprules1935]

very good!!!

[Bluzer86]

Eased my worried mind, love this song :)

[MrIBGB]

Doc's eyes may not work but the man truly has vision.

[desertdean21]

A great version of an old blues song, written by Kokomo Arnold (born in Georgia, 1901). Other great covers have been done by Bob Wills, Elvis Presley, Willie Nelson, and George Straight. Doc's is my favorite. Thanks for posting!

[squarepox]

@desertdean21

Dude........No kudos to Robert Johnson???? What? It's his version Doc and others pay(ed) tribute to.

[SqueezeMyLemonBabe]

@squarepox I prefer Kokomo's version but Johnson is incredible. And this is an incredible cover.

[emilylikestorawr]

[kinggimped]

This guy is awesome. Loving it.

[fiddleray56]

This doc can heal you

[bojangles285]

another hero of mine. doc watson is a master.

[jtmplexy]

Much different than the Aerosmith version, yet they are both fantastic. Good songs can transcend genres, and this one is proof.

[AbsurdBrane]

Wow!This is sweet! I sure like that tone too!!!!!!!!!!!!

[LukeZachariades]

[daidli]

I saw doc years ago at the Bottom Line in NYC with and without Merle. It's a magic show

[pontazzz]

Oh really!

I like his music.

I envy you.

[riacone]

Went to my first bluegrass festival this past April: MerleFest in Wilksboro, NC. This brooklyn boy is now hooked. Youtube is a blessing. Go DOC.

[Galacticplane]

How wonderful to see Doc playin with grandson Richard! Thank you for the post!

[godzy85]

Wonderfull!

[tonykartyz125]

utope thts how i got here/aerosmith,i've had the pleasure of seeing doc watson

[utopiadan]

Just Fantastic! I love the different versions of this classic song. Check out Aerosmiths unplugged version or Ricky Nelsons version, also great.

[shule48]

nobody does blus,country or bluegrass better than than the doctor of the geetar.

[stevethefishguy]

wonderful. absolutely wonderful

[blair227]

Doc Watson pure Guitar legend. I was fortunate to see him live and this is one of the songs he did. Also saw him perform with Pete Seeger another legend. Great post.

[rudebuddhist]

Several years ago, I was a cook at a Pizza Hut in Boone, NC and the good Doc would come in every few weeks and get the same personal pan. And now i get to say I used to cook Doc Watson's pizza!!!

[motfubb]

he does seem to have a personality that would get a personal pan at pizza hut and i dont mean that in a bad way at all

[oreheht]

wheres doc been all my life not in sydney australia awsome

[woolst]

I have seen Doc several times.  This is some of the best music on the planet. Let's see, listen on a porch watching the sunset with a cold beer and a good friend. Thanks.....

[mernst]

amazing...u never know what Doc might do or knows how to play!

[simplelifecooking]

Doc you Rock!!! You sweet thang.

[al43860]

The Doc deliverin' some mighty good medicine.

[sophiesage]

Doc can do it all! Him and Merle on the album Live and Kicking ( or is it Picking? )do the gold standard of this song...the album is hard to find though.

[bigdjindustriez]

it's "Alive and Pickin'" actually

[pilotfish]
