I met Doc Watson in a Walmart in Boone N.C. about twenty years ago while I was on vacation. He went by us with his wife, holding lightly to the buggy. I was 50 years old and was just awestruck. "That's Doc Watson!" I whispered to my wife, so excited I almost couldn't speak. "You should go up and say hi," she said, but I didn't want to intrude. Doc, with his amazing hearing, caught the whole exchange. "Son, step on up here." He introduced us to his wife and we talked for about five minutes about music and life. He asked how long we'd been married and when I told him 22 years he smiled. He shook both our hands and continued on with his shopping. One of the high points of my life.

I met Doc Watson when I was 10 years old in 1961. This was before he became world famous. My father was his cousin and my grandfather lived just down the road from Doc. So my father took me up to Doc's house and we sat in his kitchen and as my father and Doc talked, he asked Doc if he could play something for him and me. Doc was happy to do so and he played and sang for me and my father. Doc was a wonderful man. Little did I know then, just how lucky I was. Something to remember.

And of course, there's the mandatory Christmas Carol concert in the local church in which I have to participate as a member of the choir... Ach weel, it's all music!

@@amygwenn4220 Surely you've imagination enough to understand that it can irritate non-believers when believers continually go on about the goodness of a god they don't accept exists, at least not in any way like the major religions preach. It's hardly a meaningful profession of faith to assert on YT that god has blessed us with someone's singing ability. Non-believers don't tell people that a wonderful performance is nothing to do with god but purely hard work, inborn ability and maybe an element of luck. Actually, Steve's comment was one of he less irritating ones because he is telling us that Doc and Scruggs were religious, of some relevance because they did sing religious songs. However, he chose to put it such a way as to declare his own faith which is completely irrelevant to Doc's and Scruggs' religious convictions, and also irrelevant to critical appreciation of the music. I'm 100% that a lot of religious people would be annoyed by me if I always included comments about there's no god making these performers special. My belief is completely irrelevant to the critical appreciation of the merits of the music. And let us remember that there is just as much secular music that is as beautiful as religious music. And for the record, probably the most gorgeous piece of music I have ever sung in many years of choir singing, was Faure's Requiem, a setting of the Roman Catholic Mass for the Dead. Faure, ironically, was an atheist!

I saw Doc perform on the streets of Lenoir, NC when I was a child. Our pastor, Gene Watson, was Doc's first cousin. Doc sang at Gene's mother's and father's funerals. I went to Merlefest (which is held about 15 miles from my home) many times and looked forward to seeing Doc. It's not the same without him. One year on Sunday morning, he sang "Wayfaring Stranger," and I cried because it was one of my mother's favorite hymns and she had died just the week before. There's a wonderful bronze statue of Doc sitting on a bench and holding his guitar; it's in downtown Boone, NC. Doc proved that being blind is a handicap only if one lets it be. He was a wonderful man.

I first saw Doc Watson on a Saturday night variety show in the fall of 1963. He played Deep River Blues and I was knocked out. I didn't know his name and it took me a while to find out who he was--Not a lot of Doc fans in West Texas back then. When I got to college in Detroit in the fall of 1964, I went into a record store and there was Doc's first solo album: DOC WATSON. I bought that and ended up with thirty or so lps and cds. He still gives me the chills with his playing and I am 80 years old and have been listening for over 60 years. Saw him live a few times in L.A. at the Ash Grove.

Vous, les Américains, avez raison de dire que Doc Watson était l'un de vos trésors nationaux ! Même s'il est peu connu ici en France, ou en Europe, il représente pour tous ceux qui l'aiment, le meilleur de la culture profonde des États-Unis, pas la culture artificielle imposée par l'industrie du disque (qui fait des ravages dans le monde entier depuis des décennies...) J'écoute Doc Watson depuis 40 ans sans me lasser ; c'était un fabuleux guitariste, au jeu génial et en même temps incroyable de facilité, et surtout de naturel (Chet Atkins, extraordinaire technicien, semble en comparaison froid, sans vie : c'est la virtuosité pour la virtuosité. Idem pour Marcel Dadi, qui a eu le mérite de faire découvrir Doc aux français). De ce point de vue, et dans un tout autre genre, je peux le comparer à Manitas de Plata. Mais Doc Watson avait en plus une humanité charismatique, que renforçaient une solide foi chrétienne, un courage exemplaire face aux épreuves de la vie et un fabuleux humour. Toutes ces qualités rayonnent littéralement à travers les vidéos, nombreuses heureusement sur KZfaq, qui nous permettent de revoir et d'entendre encore et encore ce merveilleux artiste.

I had the privilege to pick with Doc Watson at Bean Blossom, he invited me to sit down with him under a big oak tree , I had been learning his picking from record albums , he liked the sound of my D-28 because of it’s unique sound , it’s on several recordings at Muscle Shoals Sound

I picked up my first guitar in 1972 and while practicing at my after school job a friend said “let me show ya how Doc Watson does it” and I’ve enjoyed every minute of Doc since!!! Met him once and he was just a great man.

What a joy to hear him and his band pick at the Merle Fest! Such an incredible talent! Rest in peace, Doc - You will be greatly remembered and dearly missed.

I heard him at the Telluride Bluegrass Festival in the 1980's. What a great musician and a great human. His being comes out in his music,

Sensational. Exactly one month before he died. An inspiration at 89 years.

I asked Doc to sign my fiddle in the dressing room at The Sweetwater. He said "I'm blind, Son. What makes you think that I can write?" I said "I know that you went to the Raleigh School for the Blind and I have your songbook where you scrawled your name on the cover". He said "Why Merle, this fella knows more about me than I do. Sign this fella's fiddle for both of us". Merle wrote "Doc and Merle Watson" on my fiddle and died a week later in a tractor accident. RIP & RIP.

j'ai été vraiment très ému à l'annonce de son décès. C'est pour moi un monument de technique et de sensibilité. Il a accompagné des moments clés de mon existence. Il est ahurissant de virtuosité, et la facilité avec laquelle il interprète ses morceaux les rend accessibles à tous.

accessibles a tous? pas pour moi... mais j'ai 72 ans, je ne me lasse pas d'entendre cet artiste a la vie si riche et pourtant difficile a cause de sa cécité et de la perte de son talentueux fils!

God rest their souls. Doc and Meryl were of those that we cannot forget.
