It’s amazing that you got to see Doc Watson live. What an experience. I had read about his conversion. I believe the last song he performed in public was, ‘I’ll Fly Away.’
It’s wonderful to contemplate the Lord Jesus being one of the first sights Doc Watson ever set eyes on. He was an amazing artist from start to finish.
I love Deep River Blues, btw. His skill was picking, but he had a very distinctive voice as well.
‘If my boat sinks with me,
I’ll go down, don’t you see,
‘Cause I got them deep river blues.
Now I’m gonna say goodbye
And if I sink, let me die,
‘Cause I got them deep river blues.’
I was blessed to see doc multiple times. The last was the best - knowing he has eternal life.
