Earl Scruggs & Doc Watson Movie

[MoonlitGypsy]

Is that Earl's son Randy on Doc's left? Is Doc's son Merle on Earl's right? If not, who are they? I need to check out the long video. Glad you posted it! I LOVE YouTube!

hey guys, fans of Doc Watson should definitely check out Kent Gustavson's new book, "Blind But Now I See, The Biography of Music Legend Doc Watson " @ his Facebook page, "Doc Watson Book".

[johnzo61]

[robrickshaw]

this is the same melody as that preacher casey song that woody sings. is this where the melody came from or did woody sing it first?

[crowebroke]

Man that banjo is loud as hell. Doc is a classic.

john hardy

[FattKidd]

Is that Doc Watson singing?

[allinaday]

Yes it is

[Pickinbuddy]

A FABULOUS document...and by God's grace, we still have Doc and Earl with us!

[allinaday]

I completely agree. Two wonderful characters and wonderful musicians.

[lickableplum]

whats with the kid in the background on guitar? wasn't 3 guitars enough. scruggs rules

[allinaday]

The kid is Earl's nephew. He was just beginning. He went on to become a top professional. It was amazing how many of Earl's relatives Earl brought up in the music business. Bringing up a kid to play a stringed instrument was a part of Earl's basic character and culture. It would have been lucky for any of us music lovers to have grown up in that family

[johnnyjackpot]

Wow!  What a treat!

[swampbot]

hey, I appreciate what you said there. It's just that this could be spread so that it's never forgotten... that was my point really.

[allinaday]

thank you Swampbot.I appreciate the response and the understanding.
