Guitar master and singer Doc Watson was listed in critical condition Thursday at Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center after a fall at his home in Deep Gap earlier this week.

Watson's daughter, Nancy, said in a telephone interview that Watson fell Monday.

She said he didn't break any bones but that he's "real sick."

The Watauga Democrat reported Thursday that Watson had an infection.
