That's not fingerpicking; he's playing the melody on the bass strings of the guitar with a flat pick like Maybelle Carter did on the original recording, then strumming the rest of the strings in time.
Me too,oh is Jamie Dailey not the most beautiful singer living today or ever??
I had the pleasure of meeting that there archtop Doyle's playing...last weekend. It's a Gibson L9 (I think) and they call those "Carter-Scratch" guitars.His was made in 1937 and he finger-picks it in this song.
someone should upload the whole song!

This brings back so many memories of when I was a kid. Bluegrass music is what was played mostly where I was raised.
