“There is something wonderful about a great melody unrushed. It's the strong sense that every note counts, that every note has something to say. Listening to Doug Young play is hearing the importance of each note—full, rich tones, following and flowing, not crowding or bumping. Listening to Doug is hearing the guitar sing.”
