    Merle was a monster player, can't imagine what his playing would be like today had he lived. Tragic loss. Long live the memory of he and Doc.

    My father picked and sang this version of Don’t Think Twice. Doc was the only artist he listened to who played it. When I told him it was written by Bob Dylan he was surprised. He didn’t like my music, as most parents don’t like their children’s generational music. But he did give Dylan kudos for writing a great song especially when I told him Dylan was a big Woodie Guthrie fan.
