Genius at work.
I need help to clean up my playlist tho, so tell me if people are outta place when you check it out. It's hard ranking the best artists of all time against each other.
@LesbianVampireLover Sorry, but this isnt the version from the movie...in the movie he gets a letter to his ubcle Fudd...this version its his uncle Bud. JC used to change the lyrics to his songs quite a bit during live shows.
@lastchip I cant make up my mind. This song lends itself to anyone with talent. I like everyone i have ever heard do this song. Eddy arnold, doc watson, johnny cash, porter waggoner etc. i just think the song is bigger than any single talent.
@MinglewoodMan Nobody plays it like Doc, even Jimmie, Minglewood was writtten by either Rev Gary Davis or Robert Johnson,depending on who you believe. But people now recognize it as a Hot Tuna/Jorma Kaukonen or grateful dead. Hoyt Axton Credited cocaine as a traditional New Orleans song. Jackson Browne credited it (I believe correctly) as Rev Gary Davis. but BCopperfield is right, in any way that really matters This is Doc's like Reznor's Hurt belongs to Johnny Cash forever
@Stan1208 Another amazing thing is that he is so humble... he claims to be very "bad" at the guitar... but I actually find his acoustic albums to be some of his best. I think he can play very well
