I'm certain he earnestly practiced many of the pieces he regularly recorded and performed. The real miracle is that he made them sound so alive and fresh all the time.

Great show. The guitar playing by him (and his son) were incredible. "Memories" is the album to get if you like Doc's country blues or want to discover his music..
