Born in 1923 in Deep Gap, North Carolina, Doc Watson is both one of the finest and most influential acoustic guitarists of the last half century and a treasure trove of traditional music. These recordings, culled from his early 1980s Flying Fish releases and remastered for this CD, showcase Doc's silk-smooth flatpicking and easygoing vocals and feature his son Merle on guitar, slide and banjo with T. Michael Coleman on bass and Mark O'Connor on fiddle. Also included is a 1990 guitar trio recording with Tony Rice and Norman Blake.
