I was fortunate enough to start seeing him play at the Main Point outside of Philadelphia back in 1969 as both an opening act as well as Jerry Jeff Walker's sideman. Over the years David has continued to provide a great show. Yes, he has slowed down a bit, but not much.
I think one of the keys to his success over the long haul has been his choice of musicians to play with. Whether on stage or in the recording studio, David has always surrounded himself with top notch players - Norman Blake, Dick Fegy, Andy Statman, John Firmin, Mark Cosgrove, etc. The list goes on and on.
