Doc Watson’s 1963 recording of “Black Mountain Rag” arguably created the style of flatpicking you hear today. The clarity, fluidity, and speed of his playing had not been heard before, and soon hundreds/thousands of guitarists were trying to “play like Doc.” You’ll learn Scott’s version of Doc’s arrangement of “Black Mountain Rag” in this lesson. Scott takes it apart for you phrase by phrase, showing you where to play slurs, open strings, etc., and giving you time to play each section along with him at a slow tempo.
