This is a special Recording in many ways Most of the CD contains train songs. I believe this is the last recording of Doc Watson with his son Merle, who was tragically killed the following year. This CD is also special because the picture was taken at Spencer Railroad shops, and i live ten miles from Spencer. Spencer Shops is a legend in many old time songs, and the wreck of the old 97, Spencer was the destination the train was headed before the fateful wreck. Doc is joined by many talented musicians, and Merle's picking is outstanding. I played the cassette so many times, I recently purchased the CD. The memory of Merle is alive and well.
