    A masterful performance in tribute to Doc. Billy is not only a masterful performer and musician but a true historian of music. The guy is genius.

    I admire his talent and respect for those who came before him. A true class act! I LOVE Doc Watson. It is clear he does too. Excellent taste in music, my brother. You did Doc proud!

    Clarence was my late grandfathers cousin. I grew up hearing the stories being played. My grandfather was Kenneth Ashley born in Martinsville grew up between the mountains of NC and Winterhaven Florida. Clarence Ashley used to run shine with Junior Johnson back in the prohibition days and secrets along with stories got passed down

    Billy, thank you, for remembering Doc and keeping his music and picking styles alive. Thank You! Thank your Pop, for teaching you, too!

      Yes Sir, Dad's matter. My Daddy taught me how to play, he was relentless and sometimes I cried and hated it, and now today other than family it's the most important love in my life.

    Why do you tell story’s when your there to play music. Can’t you tell no one is listening

    • @oceancrosby4578
      @oceancrosby4578 7 месяцев назад

      Actually, it's referred to as an "Old Soul", which means a focus on where the music comes from (and being able to play it) like the pioneers. It rounds out the present-day musician from just the technical wizardry, virtuosity, musician, that are nowadays a dime a dozen. It shows depth and appreciation along with the technical skills. 😁
