Doc Watson Guitar Lesson
The relaxed sounds of this very popular Doc Watson Guitar Lesson - Deep River Blues and the intricacy of Doc's finger style creates a formidable item of guitar playing which is tough to re-produce. It is this complex, easy feel which possibly leads to a lot of teachers to over simplify Doc's method, or worse, make it too complex utilizing two or several fingers of the picking hand.
In actual fact, Doc picks with simply his thumb and one finger of his right hand to create this impressive feeling - let's take a look at how he does it.
I hope you like the guitar lesson! There are a couple of wonderful videos on Youtube of Doc Watson performing Deep River Blues.
Never mind the fact that Doc didn't write Deep River ( it was published and sung by the Delmore Brothers, a Country singing partnership, who recorded it as 'I've Got The Big River') Doc undoubtedly made it his own.
Doc's Right Hand Picking Technique
Deep River Blues Tommy Emmanuel Tab
Re-working the song in a Travis picking way introduced delicate complexities, and yet produced a really relaxed feel. Many acoustic guitarists have a variation of Deep in their list of songs, and I perform this song routinely in public.
However, not many of us perform it in really the same way as Doc. Mostly, this is due the dexterity required. A lot of guitarists try to accommodate the complex picking technique ( as they see it ) by using two or more fingers on the right hand.

The resulting sound can be impressive, but doesn't really reflect accurately what Doc does.
Other individuals over-simplify the approach, which is a bit of a shame. In reality, Doc's approach on Deep River IS simple, but it's the sheer dexterity that floors us.
