Last year they released a CD and DVD pair. I just acquired this last week. The DVD is quite charming. One of my favorite bits is the interview and recording of the now late Etta Baker and her playing her song the knoxville rag. The thing is called "10 Days Out" and is worthwhile.

That's the real stuff. Some years later I bought Hard Again which is pretty much the other end of his life and it was just as good, drove a strong Christian from the room when I played it at work! Thanks for reminding me of one of the good things in life. My wife bought me the CD of Waters when he was Morgan McKinleyfeild and not long off the farm. That’s the real stuff.
