Spotlight #3: Dock Boggs

Hey Vinyl Community, here is episode three on the Spotlight series. This episode is about Appalachian Folk Legend, Dock Boggs. He is one of the seminal figures within Folk music. His banjo playing was like no other and to quote Greil Marcus from Dock Boggs in Thomas Jefferson's Virginia, "Dock Boggs was a singer and banjo player who sounded as if his bones were coming through his skin every time he opened his mouth; that was the sound that drew people to him."
