So, Doc Watson fell and then had surgery on a blockage of his colon? He's in critical condition but is responsive and recovering.
No, no, no, sir. No more chick pit for you. Come on.

There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

Oh no! Stay healthy, Doc! He is amazing, and Merlefest is a super good time.

RIP, Doc. My parents said he seemed out of it and didn't play much when they saw him last month at Merlefest. And his wife had a stroke and is in a nursing home.

Doc Watson and Pete Cosey within 24 hours of each other. Bad week for guitar geniuses.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
How come I haven't heard of Regina Spektor until I heard her interviewed on public radio?
Anyway, What We Saw From the Cheap Seats is awesome! Any recs for other albums of hers?

Had a long conversation once with jazz guitarist Charlie Hunter about Pete Cosey (and Hank "Sugarfoot" Garland).

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
So I was listening to "More Than This" in Starbucks. They have 80s in their rotation this month and I was struck with the guitar work - especially toward the end of the song and I could SWEAR those guitar notes were reminiscent of Bruce Hornsby and the Range (80s) or Don Henley. It seems though that the guitar player of Roxy Music is Phil Manzanera, and I see no record of him playing with Henley or Hornsby.
Am I hearing a similarity that isn't there?
