I also question why this thread is down here.

Someone seems to feel that Doc Watson isn't music.

If that is in fact the case, someone is a dork, pure and simple.

I have to agree with pdq - if Doc isn't folk , therre's no such thing.      I'm sure Pete Seeger would agree. Doc really isn't "bluegrass" but bis guitar style has influenced bluegrass as much as Bill Monroe's mandolin and Earl Scruggs' banjo. But then again, I'd consider Monroe and Scruggs as icons of American folk music. Doc, Bill, and Earl have much stronger trasditional roots than Pete, and once again, I'm sure Mr. Seeger would bw the first to agree.

To me, Doc Watson is bluegrass.

Pete Seeger is folk music.

Uh, here comes another "What is folk" discussion.

Why is this on the "BS" side? If Doc Watson isn't folk music then who is???

I try to play like him but fail miserably - still nice to have a bit of ambition.
