Arthel Lane "Doc" Watson (March 3, 1923 – May 29, 2012) the blind 7 time Grammy award winning (Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award winner) guitar player, songwriter and singer of bluegrass, folk, country, blues and gospel music passed away today. Ther will surely be a hum-dinger of a jam session up there tonight.

It was a long full life, well lived, and without regrets.

God rest ye, Doc. Thanks for the music.
