A superlative collection, reflecting the same wide variety of songs that youÂ’d hear at any Doc Watson concert. In addition to words, melody, and chord names, more than half the book is filled with guitar transcriptions and standard notation.

Customer Reviews
incomplete, often incorrect transcriptions
This book will give you the basic outlines of Doc's tunes, but if you are hoping for help figuring out the more complicated sections of some of his songs, this book won't help you. Many of the transcriptions are incomplete or simply incorrect.
This Man is a National Treasure!
This is a wonderful book of Doc's songs. Like any book its not gonna give you note for note transcriptions, thats ridiculous. It lays out the basics for you to dive right in and start playing along. If you need detailed note for note transcriptions look elsewhere, thats not the point of any music book. What makes this book exceptional is that Doc tells you a bit about every song and who taught it to him, like a little bio and it is so special to hear his words. Plenty of absolutely GREAT black and white pictures with every song, a very nice feature. Overall a great book by a great artist. There aint too many like him left people so take notice.
missing pages
Not totally happy about it -- pages 19 & 20 are missing! I could see where a dealer might miss this-- but not an owner /seller.
The song was one I wanted to learn-- "Froggy Went A-Courtin".
I'll still get some use out of it.
