Search - Doc & Son Watson :: Doc Watson & Son

Merle Watson's Debut with Father Doc Watson was Recorded Shortly after They Performed their First Concerts Together in California, and it Shows the Duo's Musical Partnership Already in Full Flower, an Incredible Fact Considering that Merle Had Only Been Picking Guitar for Eight Months. The Album features the Astonishing Instrumental Medley 'fiddler's Dram/Whistling Rufus/Ragtime Annie' and 'little Stream of Whiskey', an Old Irish Drinking Song Transformed Into a Hobo Ballad with a Bouncy Fingerpicked Melody. Perhaps Most Amazing is the Solo Harmonica Workout 'mama Blues', in which the Elder Watson Imitates the Sound of a Child Crying, Showing off Yet Another Facet of his Incredible Musical Skill.
