    All three were very good. I'd be interested in learning the name of the banjo player that appears with Doc Watson if you know it. Watson himself, in addition to his obvious playing skills, has a very expressive voice, despite his "economical" delivery.

    Other than replying to Bobda's doggy beer post, I've spent the last few hours on You Tube watching videos by Watson, Vassar Clements, Johnny Cash and Chet Atkins. That's some great stuff they have out there.

    I believe that's Earl Scruggs.

    I tried to find Flatt and Scruggs doing dueling banjo's...but while there are a lot of versions of it on YouTube, I couldn't find them doing anything other than Foggy Mtn Breakdown...which is pretty good itself!

    Great stuff Doc! I enjoyed it.

    Here's a favorite Ukelele player of mine Jake Shimabukuro.

    Don't forget to check out the rest of the site. There's many great Ukelele songs.
