wait, is that all doc or is there a banjo in there?

[@jonsparrow1571]

I don’t know the particular recording but it’s either Doc himself who play amazing banjo or it’s Merl Watson, who also played fantastically.

I dunno, but a calling a sight-impaired man's work the Official Visualizer seems kinda rude...
