We love you and will miss you, Doc! Has anyone ever matched his musical taste and melodic sense? For all his amazing virtuosity, he never played to show off hot licks, everything was in service of the song. Dan, how about a special memorial issue of the magazine devoted to Doc, with stories from various flatpickers about his importance to them, and studies of some of his renditions of tunes? Without Doc, would there even be flatpicking as we know it?

"That's nice guys! I like the slower tempo as well, thanks for taking the trouble to put it up."

"Yay Derek! Smooth, lively, and chock full of feeling. If you had a goal with this project, I would say you've exceeded it handily. Will come back and listen simply because it's that enjoyable:)"
