There has never been nor will there ever be a picker as smokin hot as Doc Watson. Rest easy in that shady grove, Doc.
Billy Strings is trying hard.
@@jasmadams yep...he could be the "next" Doc Watson. more exact: Doc-Jerry Garcia mix
Tommy Emmanuel is the best ever. Certified guitarist.

What a beautiful voice he has! So natural and unpretentious.
"Hit me with a brick, I didn't have no sense." RIP Doc. Love you Sir.
this is an unbelievable performance of an unbelievable song.
two unbelievable musicians, old generation and new. the synergy is amazing.
It's great to hear a legend play a beautiful song.
Watch this at 0.75 and listen to how romantic and gorgeous this rendition is - so technical but desperately beautiful phrasing
God bless him for staying with his roots. He had the talent to have done anything else. What a master.
Doc is an American treasure, and one that is not gathering dust. He's out there, and still singing and playing!
RIP
bar NONE the greatest GUITAR player who has yet to live, homie. the doc is the doc, he a total gentleman, and totally LOVES his fans. i suggest you see him live, he will shake your hand and thank you personally for coming to his show. dude is a awesome person.
friends introduced Doc to me in 1975...he's gone but I'm still a huge fan. Voice and pickin' so smooth, so perfect. So glad to live in this age when his music will never leave us.
Matt Kav You were introduced to him, not the other way around.
@@pedobear497 whatever...i heard Doc for the 1st time, and am grateful for the introduction
I wish he were still around. One of the rare ones.
How could there possibly be one dislike, much less 20?
i would love to hear the folks play and sing this as fast, cleanly and smoothly with such a sincere mountain sound as Doc. I have been working on it about all my life and this is an pretty hard song to play one half as well as Doc and David do, I can tell you.

GREG FETTY 53 stupid people with sense. Shady grove my little love etc. lol
Impatience, to much taking before the music probably
Been pondering the same thing. I think I've figured it out. It's the people we don't see in public but exist in the houses we drive by, which they never leave. I work EMS/fire and you'd be surprised at the amount of ppl who live in these houses we unknowingly pass by, that are in miserable conditions (on their own accord usually). We just don't see them in our daily "out and about". They hoard pets, pet crates, and fill their house til they can barely walk. And of course poo, etc. all over the floor. They're the ones disliking these 10/10 videos. All of um
I just saw their show tonight in Minneapolis. At 87, he's still great.
that little slide he hits on way up to the D at the top of the melody is so nice
There is no one in the world like Doc. How could someone not like this video? I use to do this for my classes to sing.
I could watch Doc pick for hours. Thank you Sir!
It sounds so easy and natural but the impact is immense. To me this is the inner core of music and what I always look for.
Well done! I wish I could have experienced it live.
great video, been a fan of doc since the early '50's , and am so happy that he continues to thrill people still, Doc is an icon, , and shady grove is one of his best
Absolutely the best vocals and instrumentation I've heard on Shady Grove! Doc is the Doc 😊
Best version I have ever heard!!
This is a man of music & God, what a great gifted soul ! God love you Doc ~!
God given beautiful voice, true guitar stylist with brilliant technique, charm on stage, taste in repertoire, and soul!
His and Clarence Ashley's versions are undoubtedly the best. They gave music so much heart and soul, they were in my opinion two of the best folk/bluegrass players ever to walk the Earth. They may not have had the fastest or fanciest picking but the soul they gave this song alone tops all of the music we listen to today.
I feel bad for the man. He really inspired me. Just because you can’t see does not mean you can’t be a famous musician. Rest In Peace, Docs. You will go to heaven.
What a legend. Rest in Peace Doc. You were an icon of your era.
Really enjoyed this! Thanks for making it available!
Rest In Peace you legend! You will live on through your influential music!
Loved this,thank you so much for posting,I just watched this for the first time today!❤
bravo
doc is the master, the best folk player and singer ever. amazing.
Doc was a wonderful person; feel so blessed to have heard him at the Marion, VA theater a couple years ago. He is surely missed by many but we'll always have the memories!
The greatest bluegrass guitar player who ever lived. This is just magical.
I am from east Tn and west nc . I am truly lucky that I don't remember a time with out doc. But I do remember when I realized that he was an amazing man to the world also.
David Holt too is absolutely incredible.
I'm 62 and cannot pick an apple. I do hope there are many following in there foot steps
Great stuff here. Glad I found this rabbit hole.
Love this song. I can't stop listen to it !
Shady Grove has been a favorite of mine for 20 years. But it's never been played & performed like Doc Watson does it. What a beautiful voice & talent!
RIP Doctor- you were and always will be legendary
Thank you for this post Doc is a legion in folk bluegrass and blues.
True roots music .
Doc is and always has been a great entertainer and artist
Beautiful.
God bless and keep this wonderful man in peace. You will be verily missed Doc.
My college roommates turned me on to Doc Watson (we even named our dog "Doc"). We went to one of his small venue concerts in Miami in the 70s. Then, when I was teaching English at a binational center in Bucaramanga, Colombia, David Holt came to give a concert sponsored by the embassy. I had the honor and privilege of sharing my apartment with him and his family for a few days (he loved the city and wanted to stay longer). He gave me and the center a banjo (I don't know what happened to it--I wish I still had it), and I learned to play it a little as I knew some guitar, tiple, and cuatro (ukulele). What a great guy and awesome musician.
This has become my "THEME SONG." ;)
Ur pretty
James Butler You're a real lady killer, James.
Elizabeth Grove Now I want little Shady Grove to say she'll be my wife... so will you be my wife? :P
Burried my grandmother recently in Shady Grove cemetery near a small town in SC.
Great performance.
Doc was & still is the greatest ever! An with David Holt together is the tops...
Merci M.Doc!
Rest in Peace, Doc. Thanks for the music.
Everyhing fits here:
guitar + banjo + vocals + mood + + + + ......
THANKS
Ahhhhh
Like a drink of water on a hot day
The Best ever. Doc. Will be playing in our hearts forever .....
Peace to you, Doc. Thank you.
It's the I'm bound to go away part that always made this a mournful song for me.
Amazing
Just love Doc the best.....
If nothing but Doc's music played on my stereo I would be happy.
YES!
What a cool video
Superb
awesome singing
LOVE LOVE LOVE DOC
Post more Doc!!
Checking in
Cheeks as red as a bloomin' rose and eyes as the prettiest brown
She's the darlin' of my heart, sweetest little girl in town
I wish I had a glass of wine and bread and meat for two
I'd set it out on a golden plate and I'd give it all to you
Shady Grove, My little love, Shady Grove, I say
Shady Grove, My little love, I'm bound to go away
(Banjo solo)
When I was a little boy I wanted a Barlow knife
And now I want little Shady Grove to say she'll be my wife
A kiss from pretty little Shady Grove is sweet as brandy wine
Ain't no girl in this whole world that's prettier than mine
Shady Grove, My little love, Shady Grove, I say
Shady Grove, My little love, I'm bound to go away
(Guitar solo)
There's peaches in the summer-time, apples in the fall
If I can't have little Shady Grove, I don't want no gal at all
I went to see my Shady Grove, she was standing in the door
Shoes and stockings in her hands, and her little bare feet on the floor
Shady Grove, My little love, Shady Grove, I say
Shady Grove, My little love, I'm bound to go away
(breakdown)
I wish I had me a big ol' horse and grain to feed him on
And little Shady Grove to stay at home and feed him while I'm gone
I wish I had me a needle and thread, as fine as I can sew
I'd sew my pretty gal to my side, and down the road we'd go
Shady Grove, My little love, Shady Grove, I say
Shady Grove, My little love, I'm bound to go away
Grandioso.
Brilliant
I LOVE DOC WATSON FOR YEARS !!!! congrats and best regards. val:)
Doc is the best
WHAT A PICKER...ONE OF THE BEST...DOC....
Doc was on my Bucket list of handshakes, but I never made it, Great Picker,Great Man.
I am in 5 grade and am singing this in chorus
Me too
I'm curious mate, how ya doin? Grew up on good music, thats for sure
learning shady grove on guitar. My teacher is doing an amazing job
Thank you strings, I learned something today! Have a thumbs up and please excuse yevveh's ignorance.
No amount of likes in the world could do this justice.
You're right, he is the best 👍
❤❤❤
Rest in Peace Doc.
One day I asked my father that if Doc ever came to town, could we go see him. My dad said yes. But about a month later he died so thats a shame
rest in peace brother
RIP Doc Watson. You will be missed.
i agree 100 %
HD sent me here 🎶💙👈
I song this song at school
Rip Doc
Rest in peace doc watson:/
I'm singing this song in choir and the words are soooo different(: haha
I have atleast 3 books going over fiddle tunes and banjo tunes and none of them have the same lyrica or melody for this song
Learning this on my ukulele ❤️
I like this one at a slower tempo.
I agree.
Play this video at .75. its gorgeous
@@Sagan_Starborn Yep. It really comes alive.
rip Doc
Definitely know about wildcat creek and especially the wildcat flea market. Got my first machete there.
nice
DAMMIT DAMMIT DAMMIT!!!
There are several versions of this tune out there. you can even find dozens on youtube (many with alt. lyrics) check it out!
New sub. here
I've seen this one done in G with the most emphasis on the D minor more often than not. It walks up to a C chord and back down to the D minor chord over and over and over.
Go listen to the old song Matty groves. I only discovered it the other day - it dates back to 15th century England or something cool like that. I found it because I realised doc also does a version of the original on his home again album. Pretty sweet.
Doc is awesome. So was his son Merle who was killed when a tractor flipped and crushed him . Merle was the best dobro slide guitarist ever . Miss ya bud
It kills me that people associate this with "bluegrass" music and I think I got that peeve from my grandfather. Yes, bluegrass stemmed from this type of music but this style of folk playing goes much deeper and is much much older. Bluegrass is almost an entirely different genre
True true
I don't even think of Flatt and Scruggs or the Stanley Brothers as "bluegrass" anymore even though they got it going the way it went
Oh, for lord's sake...see him for who/what he was...an American icon...oh, and my Godfather...:-)
music starts at 1:16 (mostly a reminder for myself
