Doc Watson and Gaither Carlton 'S/T,' available 5/8/2020 on LP, CD, and Digital

Doc Watson and Gaither Carlton is a new album of old-time music produced from archival recordings by two legendary musicians. These largely unheard tapes were recorded at Doc Watson’s two earliest concerts, presented in New York City’s Greenwich Village in 1962. Those shows were among the rare appearances Doc’s father-in-law, fiddler Gaither Carlton, made outside of North Carolina. The instrumental pieces, including Gaither’s signature tune “Double File,” include intricate musical interactions developed through years of family music-making. On the songs and ballads, Doc’s instantly recognizable baritone voice is accompanied by his own guitar and Gaither’s fiddle, or by the traditional combination of fiddle and banjo. Shortly after these recordings were made, Doc Watson embarked on a career as one of America’s premier acoustic guitarists, earning the National Medal of Arts and eight Grammy Awards.

Lyrics:
Blessed we are to dance on this ground
With the rhythm of saints to carry the sound
We hold a prayer for the Earth, for the ones yet to come
May you walk in Beauty and remember your song.

Blessed we are to dance on this ground
With the rhythm of saints to carry the sound
We hold a pray for all Life, for the days yet to come
May you walk in Beauty and remember your soul.

Remember why you came here
Remember your life is sacred.
Remember why you came here
Remember this life is sacred.

A ya ye ya ye ya ye yo (4X)



Blessed we are (Peia cover)
