If Doc Watson were still with us, he would have turned 93 today. Doc Watson played huge role in popularizing Old Time music, and he was both a fine singer and a remarkable guitarist. I’ve known Doc Watson’s music since my teens when I used to listen to the old Folk Music and Folkways radio program with host Joe Louis on CJRT here in Toronto. Mr. Louis played quite a number of cuts over the years featuring Doc, often with his son Merle.

Here’s Doc performing Deep River Blues…

Streamline Cannonball….

And one more….Black Mountain Rag
