Playlist for Doc Watson Tribute (6/4 & 6/7)

Doc Watson was one of everybody's heroes when I was growing up playing guitar. He will be missed, but my heavens he left us a lot of great music.

Thanks to Phil Rosenthal of Guilford, CT, and Joe Newberry of Raleigh, NC, for being willing to share their insights about Doc with us. Appreciate it a lot.

We did take a couple of breaks from playing Doc's music; we played some related music; we played some music from some other stars who have passed away lately; and we played one set of happy tunes not related to anything--just 'cause I was getting morose.

Thanks for all the great music, Doc.
