    I remember this song coming on the radio one Saturday morning in the UK. Was totally transfixed and it has literally changed my life. Up to that point guitar music meant the Shadows, knew nothing about fingerpicking. Went down to the local record shop armed with the words Watson and River Blues, fortunately for me the Guy behind the counter was a folkie and managed to order me an LP with the track on it. Still got it .

    Don't you love how everyone is entitled to their opinion? Well, here's mine. While I admire a person's ability to speed shred leads on the guitar (or any other instrument) I think it has it's place and time, and an acoustic guitar song like this isn't it.. Many a great blues player have said; ''when it comes to leads, usually less equals more'' ... When you throw it in there just to show you can, it becomes boastful and takes away from the feel of the song. There's my opinion, like it or not. That being said, I think Tommy is one of the best pickers out there alive today, and my admiration for him is endless.. Keep rockin it, brother.. Cheers

    Out of all the great musicians in the world, Tommy is the one that I would choose to meet. He enjoys every second when he is playing and his exuberance is contagious. A very humble guy who loves what he does and always gives credit where due. I love that he is willing to share and encourage everyone who likes music. As for his skill on guitar, well ... that speaks for itself!

    Brings back a lot of memories! Doc had a huge influence on my own life, and my music, and Deep River Blues was one of the first tunes I learned from him. I met him in the mid 60s, in Blacksburg, Va, not far from his home stomping grounds. He played at a local coffeehouse, and I was totally mesmerized from the first words he spoke and the first notes he played. He was an amazing man, one of a kind, and I will always consider him a national treasure.
    I've been to Merlefest in years past, and it would be a thrill to see Tommy there this year!

About three years ago I picked my Martin and started playing again, starting in March 2015 I started playing at wineries in and around Sacramento and Lodi, California areas. Thank you sir for the inspiration. Ga Day!

    I note with some satisfaction that Tommy is playing an old Martin D 18. While I appreciate Tommy's loyalty to Maton and his patriotism I've always said he would sound better on a vintage Martin and so he does. I used to have one just like it but like a fool sold while intoxicated. I now own a Collings D1 Just as good if not better. Anyway this is Tommy at his greatest. Love it.

The tickets were fifty cents a piece. Needless to say it was the best dollar I've ever spent. I really love the production of you and Jason Isbell doing this song. I love to watch your fingers move so effortlessly and smoothly. I'm sure Doc would love it. Thank you so much for your music.

It's truly an awe-inspiring experience watching and listening to you play and the wide range of sounds and "feeling" you're able to evoke and coax out of a guitar. I write my own material using a keyboard or piano and have since I was a child, and even tho I never learned how to read music or master an instrument it was your music and videos that inspired me to try the guitar.
